net-im/jabber-base version 0.00 uses: fowners jabber:jabber /etc/jabber /var/log/jabber /var/spool/jabber var/run/jabber fperms 770 /etc/jabber /var/log/jabber /var/spool/jabber /var/run/jabber Note that this is in pkg_postinst, outside of the sandbox. A line of code says more then a thousand words: exec chown "${@/#${slash}/${D}${slash}}" As chown & chmod fail silently nobody has picked this up yet. For ejabberd at least, this results in the daemon being unable to start *and* unable to log. It takes modification of the initscript to be able to see what is going on. Please mark jabber-base-0.01 stable at your earliest convenience. The script is easy to read, and only two changes have been made: fowners -> chown fperms -> chmod
