I fact there is the possibility to skip this part in the Makefile:
install-local: doc-install
ifneq ($(DEBIAN),yes)
$(INSTALL_DIRECTORY) -o ${user} -g ${group} -m 2775 \
${localstatedir}/log/liquidsoap
$(INSTALL_DIRECTORY) -o ${user} -g ${group} -m 2775 \
${localstatedir}/run/liquidsoap
endif
In the Debian package, we invoke make install as:
make install DESTDIR=$(CURDIR)/debian/tmp/ DEBIAN=yes \
prefix=$(CURDIR)/debian/tmp/usr \
sysconfdir=$(CURDIR)/debian/tmp/etc
But then the package has to create these directories itself.
Similarly, the account creation is done in the install script of the package.
if ! getent group liquidsoap >/dev/null 2>&1; then
addgroup --system liquidsoap
fi
# Check for an account named 'liquidsoap'
if ! id liquidsoap >/dev/null 2>&1; then
# Create the new system account
adduser --system --disabled-password --disabled-login \
--home /usr/share/liquidsoap --ingroup liquidsoap liquidsoap
fi
# Add again /usr/share/liquidsoap if user was already created
if ! test -d /usr/share/liquidsoap; then
mkdir /usr/share/liquidsoap
fi
# Fix directories ownership
chown -R root:root /usr/share/liquidsoap
chown -R liquidsoap:liquidsoap /var/log/liquidsoap
I believe the AUR/Arch package should be able to do the same.
It is unfortunate that the Makefile variable is called DEBIAN. Perhaps we
should rename
it to something like TO_PKG or something similar ?
