The file ids in the tar file come straight from the debs.
The debs were borged because of the different filesystem behaviour, a bug in
dpkg-so

Hello!
I noticed that when creating a file as root
(both uid=0 and gid=0), the default GID owner
won't be 0 but 1000.
This breaks execution of programs that check
GID of a specific file as a security feature,
like the X server does.
Went into hurd_file_name_lookup but don't
understand it well
