[issue6516] reset owner/group to root for distutils tarballs

[Tarek Ziadé]

Tarek Ziadé <ziade.tarek at gmail.com> added the comment:

We can add two options to the commands that create tarballs:

- owner
- group
 

but we first need to add this capacity to the tarfile module because
right now the API doesn't allow you to add files with custom uid and gid.

I am going to add another issue with a proposal for this.
