This is starting to get annoying. Hardcoding something in to the base system that's not used by *anything* in the base system is a mistake. Sometime over the weekend I'm going to remove the www user/group, and the pop one, and teach the POP related ports how to add a user at install time. While I'm there I'll dike out the xten user as well, which seems to be of little use to man or beast. I'll modify any ports that use that as well. If I'm feeling particularly energetic these could be variables in one of the ports .mk files. Probably variables per 'user' -- taking the form USER_<system>, UID_<system>, GROUP_<system>, GID_<system>, where <system> is one of WWW, XTEN, POP3, .... > Approved by: arch discussion from Oct 20 > MFC after: 3 days Don't bother with the MFC.
