Hi,

As part of taking maintainership of the net-misc/asterisk package (and
related), one of the cleanup items is to use the new acct-{user,group}
method for assigning UID and GID values.

As such I'd like to please reserve UID and GID = 42 for asterisk.

Why 42?

echo -e "\x$(bc <<<"obase=16; 42")"

Current net-misc/asterisk uses a dynamically assigned UID and GID value.

I do not have permission to edit
https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/UID_GID_Assignment_Table
(https://api.gentoo.org/uid-gid.txt).

Neither RHEL nor Fedora seems to have an asterisk user.  Arch uses 77. 
We already have qemu on 77.

Kind Regards,
Jaco
