Subject: [ptxdist] [PATCH] avahi: use working defaults for user/group
Date: Mon, 11 Nov 2024 00:01:22 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20241110230121.1282197-1-rhi@pengutronix.de> (raw)

As stated by the (slightly outdated) comments, no user or group named
"avahi" or "avahi-autoipd" exists in the default /etc/passwd or
/etc/group in PTXdist, so Avahi will complain about the missing
user/group and refuse to start with the default configuration. Set the
default values to the unprivileged "nobody"/"nogroup" instead, which
already exist, and remove the outdated comments.
