A method, computer program product and system for determining ownership of containers. An installer program may edit stored information, such as ownership, about software component(s) it installed in a container. Upon a subsequent installer program planning to install a software component in that container, software, referred to as a "collector," may identify the owners of the software components stored in that container. The collector may then search the rules in a rules database to determine the ownership of the container based on the ownership of the software components in the container. By mapping the software components stored in a container with their respective owners, the ownership of a container may be determined.
