Setting up a phpmyadmin config file is hardly "system

Can any average user joe bloggs configure phpmyadmin? If not (and I
suspect not, otherwise pandemonium is the result) then it is a system
administration task!


Only in Debian is phpMyAdmin owned by root.  And no, it does NOT
have to be configured by the system administrator.  A website
administrator could configure it, for instance.

Sigh! For the purposes of this list, that *is* system administration if
the phpmyadmin config file is under a system directory.  Don't confuse
debian-user with debian-enterprise and/or debian-isp.



No, for YOUR purpose, that is system administration. but not every installation is one person running a machine in his/her basement. It isn't the way the system is administrated when you have multiple people managing a large system. And just because this is debian-user doesn't mean it is system administration for everyone.

There are not multiple packages for debian-user, debian-enterprise and/or debian-isp.

And the ONLY reason these files are owned by root is because the Debian packagers did it that way. The original package is NOT owned by root.
