package-users

package-users User Based Management was devised by Matthias Benkmann. In this scheme, each package is installed as a separate user into the standard locations. Files belonging to a package are easily identified by checking the user ID. Orignially from: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/hints/downloads/files/more_control_and_pkg_man.txt (by ericherman)

    Develop a version control system so you can easily keep track of which files were installed by which package. I like https://github.com/ericherman/package-users for this (and still use it for tracking from-source packages under /usr/local on non-LFS systems.)
