I recently cited the "milter" user on this list as a bad example from |
7 |
the user.eclass days... it was used by at least three unrelated |
8 |
packages: milter-regex, opendmarc, and opendkim. I fixed opendkim, of |
9 |
course, but it looks like opendmarc still uses "milter" as its user, too. |

Now would be a good time to switch them to unique accounts, since |
12 |
neither package should be able to access the other's files. The obvious |
13 |
choice for opendmarc is "opendmarc", and that's even what upstream |
14 |
defaults to -- we sed it to "milter" in Gentoo. |

I guess we could keep "milter" for only regex-milter, but that has the |
17 |
disadvantage that it messes with the opendmarc package in the meantime. |
18 |
Upstream uses "_milter-regex", and according to the PMS that's... |
19 |
actually... a legal package name? How do people feel about that? It's |
20 |
insane, for sure; but I'm too tired to tell if it's good insane or bad |
21 |
insane. |
