Question On authid current_user

   I created a stored procedure that analyzes the tables in a small schema. The procedure is owned by one user and was created with authid current_user, so it can be run by another user. It runs fine as the other user, as long as it is called directly by that user. When it is put inside a package, an ORA-01031: insufficient privileges error is raised. The customer is asking me to grant "execute any" privilege to the second user so that it will run. I'm not convinced that will solve the problem and I don't want to do this grant. What other options are there for getting this procedure to run inside the package?
