/etc/amavisd.conf is installed with root:root 0640, but then amavis reload will fail because user amavis cannot read its config file. So root:amavis 0640 would be the correct user:group and perms Thanks ;)
$ grep -B1 etc/amavisd.conf amavisd-new-2.10.1-r1.ebuild pkg_postinst() { chown root:amavis "${ROOT}/etc/amavisd.conf" $ ls -l /etc/amavisd.conf -rw-r----- 1 root amavis 36700 Sep 9 10:39 /etc/amavisd.conf Question is why did it not work for you?
Whoops. I have to admit that I did not check the ebuild :-/ I will keep an eye on that and report back, if this issue arises again. I think we should close as invalid for now then or leave it open as you wish ;) Maybe I should add myself to net-mail herd. Would that be ok?
Adding yourself to net-mail herd is certainly OK. Closing as INVALID. Reopen as you see fit.
