- Various fixes around "All Users/"Just For Me" (thanks to Christian
Franke for investigating these problems):
-- Fix a long-standing bug (since 2012), where installed files are
owned by the user's primary group, rather than the Adminstrators
group, when installing for "All Users".
-- We no longer change group back to the user's primary group while
running postinstall scripts, when installing for "All Users". This was
only for the benefit of mkgroup/mkpasswd being run by the postinstall
script, which we don't do any more.
-- Fix "Just For Me" being ignored, when run with Admininstrator
privileges
-- Fix "All Users" being selectable but basically ineffectual, when
not run with Admininstrator privileges
Cool! I've just been dealing with multi-user installations for the first
time in a serious way and encountered some of these issues. Nice to have
a fix without even asking!
