Comment (by fo):
I am including this comment, after some recollection came to my mind.
First, never I would have thought of using ''true''. Usually, I change
''user '' and ''group'' to mine ones, and after I revert.
Sometimes, I do a ''DESTDIR'' install, verify that everything is OK, and
like to do with the source code a ''true'' install. That is the reason I
used ''sudo'' for ''DESTDIR''. For another package, I did fix the
''DESTDIR'' install as Bruce did here, but after the install, I revert the
fix, for the reason explained before. So, ''FWIW'', I modified Bruces'
instruction of comment:2 for that (other cosmetic modifications are just
personal preferences, not relevant):
{{{
# Fix for DESTDIR unprivileged install
sed -e 's/chown/true &/' -e 's/chgrp/true &/' \
-i {libexec,conf}/post-install postfix-install &&
# DESTDIR unpriviledged install instructions
... &&
# Revert fix for DESTDIR unprivileged install
sed -e 's/true \(chown\)/\1/' -e 's/true \(chgrp\)/\1/' \
-i {libexec,conf}/post-install postfix-install
}}}
I know this must be not relevant for Bruce, but perhaps someone might like
it.
