proposed only, for now. - what's the policy on packages requiring build-as-root purely because of a chgrp / chmod? I think this is also the sole reason why dpkg and/or apt require build as root. > > If there's no policy on this, I would like to propose: Put any chgrp and > chmod and similar operations requiring root access in the PostInst script.

There's a patch by Daniel Johnson which makes --build-as-nobody the default option and also implements a BuildAsNobody: field for .info files. If you set BuildAsNobody: false, then that flags the package appropriately. https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&aid=3044604&group_id=17203&atid=317203 - -- Alexander Hansen Fink User Liaison -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.10 (Darwin) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org/ iEYEARECAAYFAkyMAY0ACgkQB8UpO3rKjQ/2+QCghUeXT0k88lMXbl0lYnHmfBc0 vV4AoICcCT0urHEFoHwdKAqE+iCLa/eO =/kIa -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Start uncovering the many advantages of virtual appliances and start using them to simplify application deployment and accelerate your shift to cloud computing http://p.sf.net/sfu/novell-sfdev2dev _______________________________________________ Fink-devel mailing list Fink-devel@lists.sourceforge.net http://news.gmane.org/gmane.os.apple.fink.devel Subscription management: https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/fink-devel
