Works for me: install correctly changes owner to root:root as it should.
$ dpkg -c foo_1.0-r0_corei7-64.ipk
drwxrwxrwx root/root 0 2018-03-23 16:02 ./
drwxr-xr-x root/root 0 2018-03-23 16:02 ./bin/
lrwxrwxrwx root/root 0 2018-03-23 16:02 ./bin/bar -> /usr/bin/bar
drwxr-xr-x root/root 0 2018-03-23 16:02 ./usr/
drwxr-xr-x root/root 0 2018-03-23 16:02 ./usr/bin/
-rw-r--r-- root/root 4 2018-03-23 16:02 ./usr/bin/bar
Obviously the install/mv pair is pointless, and it's not conventional
to pass -p to preserve timestamps, but none of that should matter.
