https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=3D246158 Bug ID: 246158 Summary: USE_RC_SUBR ought to check or enforce script ownership Product: Ports & Packages Version: Latest Hardware: Any OS: Any Status: New Severity: Affects Some People Priority: --- Component: Individual Port(s) Assignee: ports-bugs@FreeBSD.org Reporter: milios@ccsys.com USE_RC_SUBR implicitly adds the script to the end of the plist, affected by @owner and @group. This invites some foot-shooting. I noticed an rc.d script owned by the daemon it controlled. I added a patch= to PR# 218179. Then I asked myself if modifying the operation of USE_RC_SUBR to avoid this happening might be a better solution. At the bare minimum the appropriate p= age in the Porter's Handbook deserves a note. I don't have patches provided for= any of that, I'm sorry. I don't know that portlint does or doesn't check for this issue. Still thou= gh, even if it does, any hypothetical reason that the rc.d script have an owner besides root (and i can't think of a valid one without going very contrived) should be equal reason to point it out to the user during the install proce= ss. --=20 You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.=
