Description Frederic Peters 2008-09-12 12:36:58 UTC 
r6495 fails to build on build slaves as they mandate a "gdm" group to exist beforehand.

don't abort on chown failure

Fixed it just like the others chown calls, adding || : to prevent the command to fail.
Comment 2 Frederic Peters 2008-09-22 15:44:29 UTC 
Commited after release team approval.
