Description

Environment: Linux Mint 17

After upgrading nfd package from 0.3.0~rc0.3-ppa2~trusty to 0.3.0-ppa1~trusty,
sudo service nfd restart reports successful, but NFD quits shortly after.

This problem is caused by:
The package ships a new nfd.conf which causes NFD to change euid to ndn user, but the KeyChain files installed by previous versions are owned by root.

A workaround is:
sudo chown -R ndn:ndn /var/lib/ndn/nfd/.ndn

The solution should be:
run above chown command in postinst script.
