Now that (as upstream) I've released hinfo 1.0, I'm planing on making it my first debian package.
One of the things I'd like the debian package to do is download a couple of files (when changed) with wget on a regular basis. Having root do the download is using a sledgehammer on a finishing nail, (it works, but you have to be realy careful to avoid damage), and none of the other standard users seem correct, but is it realy appropriate for a package to create a new user for a weekly download? I'm planning a medium-priority debconf question to enable this, and the actual use will be in a conffile. -- Blars Blarson [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.blars.org/blars.html "Text is a way we cheat time." -- Patrick Nielsen Hayden -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
