There are (the last time I counted) at least 400 places that need to be changed and that's just where "chown" is used. That doesn't count the fowner calls. Unless there's a script involved, I don't think it will be "one of the devs" fixing things up on this one. Michael Sterrett -Mr. Bones.- mr_bones_@gentoo.org -- gentoo-dev@gentoo.org mailing list
