...

What happens is this:

useradd -p asdflol tstpamunix_des ... + USRSKELDIR=/usr/etc/skel ++ ls -A /usr/etc/skel + for file in $(ls -A $USRSKELDIR) + test -e /home/tstpamunix_des/.config + cp -a /usr/etc/skel/.config /home/tstpamunix_des + chown -R tstpamunix_des.100 /home/tstpamunix_des/.config chown: cannot access '/home/tstpamunix_des/.config': No such file or directory

Note that "-m" was not passed to useradd, so it did not create /home/tstpamunix_des. This means /usr/etc/skel/.config was copied to /home/tstpamunix_des, but not into that directory.

This also explains why other users in the same test are not affected, those were created with the "-m" option.

Reassinging to shadow and raising priority - useradd must not unconditionally create home directories.

Ah ... is sounds like a dup of boo#1178296 ... please test with latest version curently tested with SR#845486

I thought that would only fix the issue that the home location was wrong, but apparently not. With that installed, the tests pass. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 1178296 *** -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
