OK.. So i was in my /root/ directory and put just one too many "."s in

I think the term is "DOH!".
Is there any way to fix these?
Personally I would install a chroot on my system, install in the
chroot all of the packages that I have installed in the root system,
and then compare the ownership of all files between the two. Using
that information I would fix the parent system. When done, remove the
chroot. Here is some reference documentation.
