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.
