Sorry, I don't see the specific problem. :-/ User IDs are unique, Think 10000 users.
Well, if that is the only problem, using UIDs is easily modified to split the directory structure into something of the form /var/cache/common-lisp-controller/some-value-from-uid/uid. We could also use use the username and put it into alphabetical subdirectories, which would still be unique. This turns the problem around: two usernames may share one UID, in which case one UID might end up with more than one fasl cache, but this does not interference with the security checks -> no problem. Just tell me your opinion on it and I'll change it, but there must be a way to avoid the current behavior which is clearly a bug, since CLC does not allow multiple users to end up with the same fasl cache. What do the other ML-lurkers think? ;-) *poll*
Great! I love it when people read my mind.
Well, actually I did read the darcs changelog and the source comments. ;-) René
