Hello,

Huh, I can see the patch here:

https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=1140676#5

It wasn't in the mail and also not in the mail in the ML [1]. Weird.

Anyway, also send an MR:

https://salsa.debian.org/debian-proftpd-team/proftpd/-/merge_requests/13

I've merged the commit, run a test build and tested using diffoscope. The most striking difference is that /usr/include/proftpd/Make.rules now lists the user, which called sbuild:

INSTALL_USER=hille
INSTALL_GROUP=hille



H.

I guess the official builders would list nobody/nogroup here. For the Debian packages this does not matter, as we use a customised Make.rules file. For others, let's see. [1] https://alioth-lists.debian.net/pipermail/pkg-proftpd-maintainers/2026-June/005773.html
