Please find attached update version of SBo scripts for Syncthing - for
testing, and if all looks good, inclusion in the new 14.2 repositories.
I have done quite a few modifications to the previous version:
1. I've rewritten rc.syncthing to start syncthing under its own user and
group, not as root - as per the developer's recommendation and previous
discussions on this group.
2. I've used uid and gid 307 - already added to the SBo UID/GID list
since last year, after my posts on this list.
3. I've re-factored the slack-desk and README files, with further
details about the software and some installation notes.
4. I've added a logrotate script to be used if Syncthing is started as
system daemon, with logging enabled.
5. I've modified syncthing.SlackBuild to check for the existence of the
syncthing user/group, and create appropriate log and lib dirs.
6. Obviously, the version has been bumped to v0.13.0.
I've tried to follow the SBo docs and advice, and used similar packages
as example - but as it is my fist submission and the changes have been
quite extensive, I would appreciate any testing and feedback.
