https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=3D210075 --- Comment #1 from Nikolai Lifanov <lifanov@mail.lifanov.com> --- I'm a bit apprehensive about this change. o Global config management daemons need to run as root to be useful or have special privilege escalation setup (i.e. sudo). CFEngine, Puppet, etc. do t= his. o There are no bundled cron jobs and there can't be any provided in a meaningful way, so this mode of operation already requires manual setup. o There is no precedent of adding a user for Ansible in other distributions= . I checked Arch Linux, CentOS (EPEL), and Ubuntu. Can you explain how such a user can be helpful? --=20 You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.=
