This sounds like a .deb limitation; switching to .rpm would solve this very issue.

How is it a .deb issue? You build a .deb from a root tree, just like RPM, and of course it has to use the user/group/permissions that exist in that root tree. I'm fairly certain RPM does the same--how else would it deal with installing a .rpm with files owned by different users?


Kindly enlighten me! :-)
