I see. Then the problem is we have many dirs in / set to GID 1000, and dpkg doesn't care much: bilbo:/tmp# dpkg --contents base-files_3.0.3_hurd-i386.deb | grep tmp drwxrwxrwt root/root 0 2002-06-04 15:42:18 ./tmp/ drwxrwxrwt root/root 0 2002-06-04 15:42:18 ./var/tmp/ bilbo:/tmp# dpkg -i base-files_3.0.3_hurd-i386.deb (Reading database ... 21633 files and directories currently installed.)
