What to do if $PACKAGE needs $ACCOUNT to _build_
Hi,
I am currently preparing packages for rrfw (see bug#186828). The
daemons that come with rrfw run as user rrfw, and the Makefiles of
that package insist on chowning some files to rrfw at build time. That
- of course - fails when the rrfw account does not exist at build
time.
How am I supposed to handle this? Shall I change the build mechanisms
so that the account is not needed at build time, shall I pester
upstream to have that changed, or is there a workaround available?
Any hints will be appreciated.
Greetings
Marc
