Hi. I moved from /usr/local-innd to OpenPKG-innd. The move worked without too much hassles (just the usual :) ), but i still have problems to inject news from uucp feeds. The reason is, that rnews is not user/group news/uucp but opkg-r/opkg-r and that it is not executable by "others". I tried to place the user uucp in the group opkg-r, but this also did not work, maybe because uucp does not "blindly" execute the command, but checks, whether it is executable und does not pay attention to the supplementary groups. And i do not want to replace the system supplied uucp, ... Hmmm, looks like setting the group of rnews to uucp seems to help - but why is the binary SGID, then ?
It would be really nice, when packages like innd, uucp, sendmail, etc. would support an option "with_trad_og" (with traditional owner and group). This would not only make it easier to integrate OpenPKG packages in an existing system, it could probably also be good for the "acceptance" in general.
