I would suggest:
in Makefile:
pre-install:
if ! pw groupshow www; then pw groupadd www -g 80; fi
if ! pw usershow www; then pw useradd www -g www -u 80 \
-h - -d /nonexistent -s /nonexistent -c "Webserver Daemon"; fi
in pkg-plist:
@exec if ! pw groupshow www 2>/dev/null; then pw groupadd www -g 80; fi
@exec if ! pw usershow www 2>/dev/null; then pw useradd www -g www -u 80 -h - -d /nonexistent -s /nonexistent -c "Webserver Daemon"; fi
@unexec if pw usershow www | grep -q 80:80; then pw userdel www; fi
@comment (removed by userdel) pw groupdel www
Features:
+ No extra scripts.
+ this will preserve existing UID/GID
Drawbacks:
- Must be done and tested in two locations
Suggestions of cause welcome.
kind regards Dirk
