Re: [aur-general] installing files for a specific user

Hi, I wonder whether it's possible to install files for a user automatically. Sometimes it would be appropriate to create user specific files instead of or in addition to the system wide files. I wonder whether this is possible and how. I guess it would at least require a post-install hook in the install file but that's as far as my guess goes.

Thanks, Philipp The only way to do that is writing a globally installed script that copies or downloads required files into $HOME. That's because the whole packaging system is made with root permissions in mind. For user-space packages there are other systems, independent of pacman's.
