--- Begin Message ---Package: dpkg Version: 1.14.16.1 Severity: normal Hello, The packages "polipo" (in /usr/lib/polipo/polipo-control) and "ipw3945d" (in /etc/init.d/ipw3945d) are among those packages that say start-stop-daemon --chuid myuser:mygroup where "myuser" is a system user and "mygroup" is its primary group. This invocation seems to no longer work with the new version of dpkg, even though it works simply to omit ":mygroup" from the invocation. (By "works" I mean that start-stop-daemon succeeds, but the resulting daemon process stays in the root group.) start-stop-daemon: Unable to set initgroups() with gid 13 (Operation not permitted) Thanks, Ken -- System Information: Debian Release: lenny/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (500, 'stable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.22 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=zh_TW.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=zh_TW.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages dpkg depends on: ii coreutils 5.97-5.7 The GNU core utilities ii libc6 2.7-6 GNU C Library: Shared libraries dpkg recommends no packages. -- no debconf information -- Edit this signature at http://www.digitas.harvard.edu/cgi-bin/ken/sig One thing that UNIX does not need is more features. It is successful in part because it has a small number of good ideas that work well together. Merely adding features does not make it easier for users to do things -- it just makes the manual thicker. -- Rob Pike, Brian W. Kernighan, 1983.
