--- Begin Message ---Package: buildbot Version: 0.8.12-3.1 Severity: normal Dear Maintainer, the postinst script performs the following task: # Fix permissions on $HOME_DIR recursively chown -R $USER_NAME: $HOME_DIR This is unnecessary on my system, as all the files are correctly owned, but the real issue is that .I have almost 2 million files in that directory, so the operation is taking ages: each package upgrade stops the build system for several minutes, which I would like to avoid if possible. Also I am not sure the package should change my file permissions if I decide that not everything in that directory belongs to the buildbot user. Could this task be performed conditionally maybe? For instance, if the buildbot user already exists at configure time.
