You apparently forgot to send it to [EMAIL PROTECTED], I did it for you. A little more about the bug: it is related to bugs #319885 and #322967. Seing those, I wonder if the system users should not all be less than 8 characters? It would be the same for user "debian-exim", and probably others. Apache maintainers have been wise to use "www-data", which is exactly 8 characters. > On Mon, Dec 19, 2005 at 11:12:49PM +0100, Jérôme Warnier wrote: > > Le lundi 19 décembre 2005 à 19:48 +0100, Sjoerd Simons a écrit : > > > On Wed, Nov 30, 2005 at 10:37:11AM +0100, Jerome Warnier wrote: > > > > > > > > I have absolutely no idea why, but the user running dbus-daemon-1 is > > > > shown as "106" by ps while all other processes are shown with a > > > > alphanumerical user. > > > > > > > > Example: > > > > 106 8872 0.0 0.4 2184 808 ?
