It should be noted that this requirement is broken when your rules
have something like:
install: install-stamp
install-stamp: build-stamp
install stuff
chown someuser stuff
binary-arch: install-stamp
build package
because than it is possible to build the package in two fakeroot runs,
i.e.:
fakeroot debian/rules install
fakeroot debian/rules binary
and the changed owner will be lost. That's another reason it's better
to chown in a binary target...
