Hello,

I am the maintainer of the tango package which contain the tango-db binary.

This tango-db provide a service called tango-db which connect to a mysql 
database.
I follow the debian-policy to create a dedicated system user for this services.
So I used the tango user which is the name of the community in charge of the 
tango-control system.

during the installation I generate a .my.cnf in the system user tango home 
which I set under
/usr/lib/tango in the package

now If a non-system user tango exist the home is not /usr/lib/tango but most 
probably /hom/tango.
so the installation process faild because it can not create the 
/usr/lib/tango/.my.cnf

What is the correct way to deal with this kind of problem ? I cannot find in 
the policy something
about conflict between system and non-system user.

thanks


Frederic
