I think this is not useful for other programs! Usually this directory should be owned by root:wheel. Sure I have altered my configuration to use /var/run/dcc/ instead, but by default the port will "damage" the system. It would be nice, if this can be avoided (for example by altering rc startscript and default dcc config?). >How-To-Repeat: Install dcc-dccd-1.3.50 from ports, activate dccifd in rc.conf and in /usr/local/dcc/dcc_conf ... or simply look at /usr/local/dcc/libexec/start-dccifd (line #183) >Fix: several solutions, i do not know what is the best for all: A) change rundir in makefile to /var/run/dcc and let it patch all following files (rc script, dcc_conf, ...) B) fix the error where it comes from... >Release-Note: >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted:
