[Bug 536564] New: Packages creating user accounts do not select UID
http://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=536564 Summary: Packages creating user accounts do not select UID Classification: openSUSE Product: openSUSE 11.1 Version: Final Platform: All OS/Version: Linux Status: NEW Severity: Minor Priority: P5 - None Component: Basesystem AssignedTo: bnc-team-screening@forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: jengelh@medozas.de QAContact: qa@suse.de Found By: Beta-Customer Some packages, such as openssh, do explicitly specify a UID/GID when creating its users/groups: /usr/sbin/groupadd -g 65 -o -r sshd 2>/dev/null || :; On the other hand, the hal package does not: /usr/sbin/groupadd -r haldaemon 2>/dev/null || : So, which is correct? Should not hal also use a fixed ID? There are many packages belonging to the latter category. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
