Re: How do I control ownership of installed package files?

[harpo]

The short answer is to have them owned by the correct person in the
debian/tmp (or, which newer debhelper versions, debian/<package>)
directory.

For situations where you need a file in debian/tmp to be owned by
somebody other than root, don't use fakeroot to build the package,
because it forces everything to look like it's owned by root.  Use
sudo.
