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.

--- Comment #2 from Stephan Kulow coolo@novell.com 2010-01-20 11:31:59 UTC --- according to the Fedora packaging guidelines (which we based our policies on), GROUPNAME alone is the right choice and I don't see a reason to specify a fixed ID.

--- Comment #3 from Jan Engelhardt jengelh@medozas.de 2010-02-01 16:07:45 UTC --- Using fixed IDs had the advantage that files can easily be NFS-shared (or similar) among a given distribution and access rights be correct.
