buildpacket does not rely on apkg at all; buildpacket creates tarball,
and apkg extracts it much later.
trouble is here:
# fetch the numeric uid/gid is user- and group-names were specified
my ($uid, $gid) = split(/\:/,$ownership);
if (!isNumeric($uid)) {
$uid = getpwnam($uid);
confess "$uid not in passwd file" unless defined($uid);
}
if (!isNumeric($gid)) {
$gid = getgrnam($gid);
confess "$gid not in passwd file" unless defined($gid);
}
getpwnam/getgrnam, which is used to convert string uid/gid to numeric,
uses system passwd/group. which is an mistake.
