Hi Holger,

Thank you very much for uploading the GNUnet stack to unstable. Are you willing to sponsor these uploads on regular bases ?

I have to say I hesitated about using dpkg-statoverride. In my first uploaded to mentors, chmod and chown were used in postinst, but one of the reviews mentionned dpkg-statoverride. I looked a bit into it and I found this usage in the Debian policy (10.9.1) [1]. It seems to me gnunet falls into the case of dynamically allocated user or group ids, where dpkg-statoverride can be helpful.

The main benefit would be the ability for a sysadmin to override the gnunet permissions easily. Could you explain me why you reverted this use of dpkg-statoverride in munin ?

Cheers,
Bertrand
