Public bug reported: I pack files with dpkg-deb --build as a normal user. The problem is the files owner in the deb package is my normal user not the root. It would be nice if dpkg-deb --build can change the ownership in the package. I found discoussion about that, and it seems there is a patch which fix that issue, but I don't see any --root-owner or --owner= option for dpkg-deb.
