My trouble with that, is the assp.cfg gets user and group of root,

well, the user and group of the 'port' process, but yeah, for install/activate that's usually going to be root.

which I do not want. In xinstal, can set user, group, and mode. I am not seeing in the docs how to tell file copy to set user and group and mode. So I just use a system call to do it?

so use xinstall instead of file copy


Assumed I could not, I shall try. The name has install it in, so I thought it would just not work in a post activation state.

xinstall works any time. It's like copy but a little different. For stylistic reasons I generally use xinstall in destroot and copy in other phases but there's no technical reason it has to be that way.
