Description (last modified by ryandesign (Ryan Carsten Schmidt))

the attribute RealName is empty, this results in an empty user being shown in some dialogs that rely on the RealName (see picture 1). it's displayed correctly in dialogs that rely on the shortname (see picture 2). adding this to the postflight script fixes that:

${DSCL} -q . -create /Users/${RUNUSR} RealName ${RUNUSR}

doing this leads to the next problem, the macports user is being shown in the users & groups system preferences pane (see picture 3) on which i haven't found a solution yet.

is it possible to hide the macports user completely from the "gui"? it must be possible since all those daemons and agents (_www, _ard, etc.) are hidden too.

sorry for my bad english, i hope you guys understood everything.
