>Description:
net-mgmt/cricket port creates user and group in do-install phase. However, it passes user/uid, group/gid via enviroment variables which does not work when installing via package.
>How-To-Repeat:
1. update ports tree
2. cd /usr/ports/net-mgmt/cricket
3. make package
4. make deinstall
5. pkg_add cricket-1.0.5_1.tgz
You will notice that the port attempts to create user/group according to the enviroment variables and not the variables defined in Makefile:
wheel:*:0:root,vladak
You already have a group "wheel", so I will use it.
lada:*:1000:1000::0:0:Vladimir Kotal:/home/vladak:/usr/local/bin/bash
You already have a user "vladak", so I will use it.
Instead, user wwwadm(uid:81) and group www(gid:80) should be created accroding to the port's Makefile.
This behavior produces package which is not usable.
>Fix:
do not pass user/uid, group/gid from Makefile to pkg-install, but use them in pkg-install directly.
