>Number: 133790 >Category: ports >Synopsis: [PATCH] mail/postfix fails to install as non-root >Confidential: no >Severity: non-critical >Priority: low >Responsible: freebsd-ports-bugs >State: open >Quarter: >Keywords: >Date-Required: >Class: sw-bug >Submitter-Id: current-users >Arrival-Date: Thu Apr 16 20:20:01 UTC 2009 >Closed-Date: >Last-Modified: >Originator: John Baldwin >Release: >Organization: >Environment: >Description: During a 'make install' as non-root, certain make targets are performed after using su to switch to root. Currently, the postfix port attempts to add users before the 'su' occurs which fails. >How-To-Repeat: Run 'make install' as a non-root user (who is in wheel). >Fix: Use 'pre-su-install' instead of 'pre-install'.
