from /etc/init.d/bnetd; start-stop-daemon --start --quiet \ --exec /usr/games/bin/bnetd -c root:games -- Is it meant to be like this and then bnetd itself drops to useraccount as specified in config? In that case it's a bit of work chowning all dirs to the correct user. Wouldn't it be better to autocreate a user for it & run as that? If not, maybe add an warning to bnetd.conf that it will be ran as root if an account aint specified? Reproducible: Didn't try Steps to Reproduce: 1. emerge pvpgn 2. /etc/init.d/bnetd start Actual Results: bnetd starts as root Expected Results: bnetd should start as some less privilegied user :)
should be fixed in pvpgn-1.6.5-r1.ebuild. It'll use the GAMES_USER_DED instead of the GAMES_USER. thanks for the bug report.
