Description Cédric Krier gentoo-dev 2006-10-13 14:19:46 UTC 
I think it is better to use a specific user to run thttpd instead of nobody

now in -r7
Comment 5 Aaron Mavrinac (ezod) 2007-10-01 16:41:39 UTC 
The thttpd user is added in -r7, but the default configuration files (thttpd.conf.sample and thttpd.confd) still specify to run as 'nobody' by default. Is this as desired?

Wow this is an ancient oversight!  I just took on this package and the new -r9 which will be in the tree soon will run under user:group = thttpd:thttpd
