Hi, all:

In www category, there are some ports with a line as:
1 @${CHOWN} -R ${WWWOWN}:${WWWGRP} ${WWWDIR}

It always followed by this line:
2 @${ECHO_CMD} '@exec ${CHOWN} -R ${WWWOWN}:${WWWGRP} ${WWWDIR}'
>> ${TMPPLIST}

while some other ports do not have line 2.

Is line 2 needed ? In my opion, line 2 changes nothing to
${TMPPLIST} in this case, so line 2 is not needed.

Any comment ?


wen

If I'm reading this right, the first line applies when installing from
ports, while the second when installing from packages. So they are both
needed.

Should the installed files be owned by ${WWWOWN}:${WWWGRP} is an other
question (and I think this is unnecessarily for many ports/files/dirs).
