error"warning: user owen does not exist - using root"?

I am trying to install openmotif22-2.2.3-18.src.rpm,

after I typed in " rpm -i openmotif22-2.2.3-18.src.rpm"

the following message comes out:

warning: user owen does not exist - using root
warning: group owen does not exist - using root

I am install openmotif under root account.

Do I need to use personal account? How can I fix it? Thanks
