  This is a patch that fixes "<executable name>: this program must be setgid smtpq". As this cannot be done in the store during build, but the upstream opensmtpd requires to set the group of those executables.

That sounds like a welcome improvement.

I applied the patch with a few changes:

  • Changed the option name from ‘set-gids?’ to ‘setgid-commands?’,
    which I think is slightly clearer.

  • Tweaked and moved its documentation to ‘doc/guix.texi’.

  • Adjusted the commit log as per our conventions (see
    <https://guix.gnu.org/manual/devel/en/html_node/Submitting-Patches.html>).

Thank you!

Ludo’.
