Description Piotr Piasny 2003-09-16 12:14:38 UTC
/etc/init.d/disttcc have bad option to distccd


Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. emerge sync
2. emerge -upv distcc
3./etc/init.d/distccd [restart|start]


Actual Results:  
# /etc/init.d/distccd restart
 * Starting distccd...
distccd: ERROR: --user: invalid numeric value


# grep -n '\-\-user' /etc/init.d/distccd 
15:     --pid-file ${DISTCCD_PIDFILE} -N ${DISTCCD_NICE} --user distcc \
Comment 1 Piotr Piasny 2003-09-16 12:17:43 UTC
--user option must have numerical user value. in script now is name not number.
resolution:
# cat /etc/passwd|g distcc
distcc:x:1001:2:distccd:/dev/null:/bin/false

and in /etc/init.d/distcc change '--user' to third field in above command
(here that is: 1001, your mileage may vary :)
