Description:   Opened: 2004-02-16 02:09 0000 
portmap-5b-r8 introduces a new patch (portmap-4.0-rpc_user.patch) that makes
portmap to try to setuid() to a user "rpc", and, if no such user exists, to the
default user "bin".

I use NFS to mount 3 network filesystems on my system. Since I've upgraded to
portmap-5b-r8, I see a one minute delay between the first and the next two NFS
mounts.

Solution:
Add a user "rpc" in /etc/passwd (perhaps as an alias for "bin").
Even better: The ebuild should create that user.

------- Comment #1 From gatto 2004-03-02 13:12:03 0000 ------- 
This was annoying me too so I added the following patch to the
portmap-5b-r8.ebuild to shutup portmap's whining in my logs. portmap uses port
111, which is verified by /etc/services, and 111 doesn't seem to conflict with
anything else on my system, so:

+
+pkg_postinst() {
+       enewgroup rpc 111
+       enewuser rpc 111 /bin/false /dev/null rpc
+}

all set now, thanks.  I didn't bump the revision because it looks like robbat2
is in the middle of some changes already in there, but I added the pkg_postinst
suggested by gatto.
