[ptxdist] Warning UID is greater than 99

Hello,

in my rule file I create some directorys with special UID and GID  for a
sftp user.

ifdef PTXCONF_DNT3202STARTUP_CREATE_SFTP_DIR
         @$(call install_copy, dnt3202startup, 0, 0, 0755,       /sftp/)
         @$(call install_copy, dnt3202startup, 0, 0,
0755,       /sftp/sftp_user/)
         @$(call install_copy, dnt3202startup, 1001, 1000,
0755, /sftp/sftp_user/incoming)
         @$(call install_copy, dnt3202startup, 1001, 1000,
0755, /sftp/sftp_user/outgoing)
endif

this is working fine for me on the target. But today I noticed this Warning
in ptxdist log:

*** Warning: The following files have a UID greater than 99.
You probably want to chown these to a system user:
drwxr-xr-x 2 lgl mgo 4096 Sep 10 15:40 ./home/shell_user
drwxr-xr-x 2 lgl mgo 4096 Sep 10 15:40 ./sftp/sftp_user/incoming
drwxr-xr-x 2 lgl mgo 4096 Sep 10 15:40 ./sftp/sftp_user/outgoing

is this something to worry about? or can I ignore that?

Best regards,

Oliver

Better use the user and group name from /etc/{passwd,shadow} not the
numerical value.

The names from ./projectroot/etc/passwd can be used directly in the
rule file ? Cool, that's new to me. (btw: how exactly is that
implemented ?)

Since what version does that work ? (my project is still on an older
ptxd version).
