Package: maildrop
Version: 2.5.5-1
Severity: important

I see:
override_dh_fixperms:
        dh_fixperms
        (cd debian/maildrop/usr/bin && chgrp mail maildrop lockmail.maildrop)
        (cd debian/maildrop/usr/bin && chmod g+s maildrop lockmail.maildrop)

This is not good idea since build machine and install machine may not have same 
GID for "mail".
dpkg-statoverride in postinst like exim4 package is good idea.

mlocate or cron package mey also be referenced.

Hi,

mail gruop is below GID = 8 < 100.

So it is static and stable across all Debian system.

So this bug report was bogus.  -- closing

Osamu
