Bug Description
When calling dpkg-divert --add --rename --package <package>, the file being diverted is renamed regardless of owner. If the file is owned by <package>, it really shouldn't be moved at all, but the diversion just added to the DB without any file ops.

This is only of medium importance, but we should really try to get it done before 12.04.0 since it has long-ranging implications for LTS upgrades if we don't get it fixed and if we have another issue like the libc6-i386/ libc6:i386 linker conflict in the future.
