I agree with you but however the app user is created in a external system like kerberos which I get at runtime only..
Any suggestions would be appreciated

That's right but am checking for the possibilities to install and do a chown on the installed files as there is a requirement for me to do so..
you cannot pass arguments to rpm packages at install time because rpm as a tool was designed for unattended installs.
you can however create the user in %pre and make that user owner using %attr in the %files section . That's the normal approach used by all packages that require a specific user

That's the whole issue. Why do you think you need that? Application
binaries and static data should not normally be owned by anything other
than root.
