Comment(by macports@…):
Good question. That line is there because users of the previous version of
sslh (1.9) will have a preexisting /var/run/sslh.pid file that is owned by
root, but in 1.10 the program drops to a lower-privileged user before
writing the pid file. This causes the write to be denied and the program
to exit on launch. The best solution seems to be to remove the existing
pid file and allow sslh to recreate it with appropriate permissions.
Your point about destroot being inappropriate is well taken; where would
you suggest we put it instead? If you feel that it shouldn't be included
at all and that solving the above permissions problem is an exercise best
left to the user, then I suppose that's also a logical solution.
