Could it be changed to not do that, please, and to just install as whatever user the process is running as, like other ports do?

The usual default for NetHack is setuid games, but this causes problems with accessing .nethackrc on distributions with restrictive default security on home directories and users who don't know the tradeoffs of various permission settings. }}} So now I'm not sure if the port should be changed. -- Ticket URL: <http://trac.macports.org/ticket/17461#comment:2> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for Mac OS
