--- Comment #5 from Michelle Sullivan <michelle at sorbs.net> ---
Ok then it's probably not "closed".. ( I won't reopen, but I would appreciate
if you would consider and re-open based on my feedback ) consider this...
The docs don't make mention.
The error says:
ERROR: Required auditdistd user is missing, see /usr/src/UPDATING.
Perhaps the error should be changed to give more information or a link to a
page with the information... I've never heard of -DDB_FROM_SRC and I have done
this more than once (though last time was around 6.1/6.2)...
A more user friendly error would seem appropriate... especially as a link where
it can explain "Unfortunately, it is not entirely safe to enable DB_FROM_SRC by
default as there may be different uid/gid values on the target system."
This is no longer an issue for me, but it will catch others, some will not
ask/report.
Regards,
Michelle
