Thanks, | | Trevor | A quick and dirty way, as long as the build works under --build-as-nobody when you've manually intervened, is to put a note in, say, DescPackaging that it doesn't work under --build-as-nobody without manual intervention. As long as the package isn't installing directly into a user's filesystem (what --build-as-nobody is designed to detect), then not working with --build-as-nobody isn't a huge deal. In fact, it's not recommended for end-users anyway, because some packages (though I have yet to encounter them) have been reported to generate binaries differently when not built as root. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.7 (MingW32) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQFH56bPB8UpO3rKjQ8RAuz8AJ4/cPIhHghocVJEpE2U+LzchYtYSQCdEyr/ mHc08gO/chPaXIUrw6dvYbQ= =8BQ0 -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
