Hi, I'm running autoyast on opensuse 10.0.42 (10.1 alpha 4). The installation works fine, but most of the system users are missing although the rpms got installed, e.g.: /root/tmp# rpm -q dhcpcd dhcpcd-1.3.22pl4-212 /root/tmp# grep dhcp /etc/passwd /root/tmp# /root/tmp# rpm -q at at-3.1.8-909 /root/tmp# grep ^at /etc/passwd /root/tmp# In y2logRPM I find entries like this: 2006-01-10 17:58:37 at-3.1.8-909.i586.rpm installed ok Additional rpm output: warning: user at does not exist - using root warning: group at does not exist - using root warning: user at does not exist - using root warning: group at does not exist - using root warning: user at does not exist - using root warning: group at does not exist - using root I can see the reason in y2logRPM: pwdutils are installed quite late, after e.g. at and dhcpd. But I don't understand why: the packages file in my SuSE/setup/descr/ directory has this entry for at: =Pkg: at 3.1.8 909 x86_64 +Req: /usr/sbin/useradd /usr/sbin/groupadd fillup coreutils ... So, Yast should install pwdutils first! Any ideas? cu, Frank -- Dipl.-Inform. Frank Steiner Web: http://www.bio.ifi.lmu.de/~steiner/ Lehrstuhl f.
