Description Mário Nogueira 2006-10-30 15:35:33 UTC
Just completed a fresh 2006.1 install, with gnome. Then, i noticed that no scores were being recorded (all the scores files where root.root). So, i re-emerged gnome-games, and noticed several errors when doing the chmod of the score files, namely "invalid user". I manually created the games user and then the emerge ran fine. I guess that in an upgrade that problem wouldn't be noticed, since the user "games" would be present in the system...
