Summary:                    Lintain failures due to permission issues with
pre/post install/remove scripts.
Description: 
When a Deb created with CPack and CPACK_DEBIAN_PACKAGE_CONTROL_EXTRA is set to
point to a preinst, postinst, prerm, postrm, Lintain reports package errors when
installed from the Ubuntu Software Center.

E: hpccsystems-platform: control-file-has-bad-owner md5sums
phschwartz/phschwartz != root/root
E: hpccsystems-platform: control-file-has-bad-owner postinst
phschwartz/phschwartz != root/root
E: hpccsystems-platform: control-file-has-bad-owner postrm phschwartz/phschwartz
!= root/root
E: hpccsystems-platform: control-file-has-bad-owner prerm phschwartz/phschwartz
!= root/root

When building in the fakeroot in 2.8.5 and 2.8.6, these files should be set when
copied by CPack to root/root in order to not violate the Debian Policy settings
as defined in Lintain.

This can be seen in the building of the HPCC platform from HPCCSystems.
