Hi, Am I right that getting the owner of the files in the *src.rpm* to be root can only be achieved by having the source and spec files be owned by root at the moment of building the src.rpm? If yes, then it would be nice if there was a macro to force the owner and group of source/spec files when building src.rpm's. Then you can as ordinary user, owning ordinary files, build src.rpm's that do not give annoying messages about unknown users when someone installs the generated src.rpm. B.t.w., rpm2cpio seems to map any owner in the src.rpm back to root, I guess this is just a feature of rpm2cpio?
