[Bug 613837] New: public_html should not be in /etc/skel
http://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=613837 http://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=613837#c0 Summary: public_html should not be in /etc/skel Classification: openSUSE Product: openSUSE 11.2 Version: Final Platform: All OS/Version: All Status: NEW Severity: Minor Priority: P5 - None Component: Other AssignedTo: bnc-team-screening@forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: usedonlytosignup@gmail.com QAContact: qa@suse.de Found By: --- Blocker: --- User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-GB; rv:1.9.1.9) Gecko/20100317 SUSE/3.5.9-0.1.1 Ant.com Toolbar 2.0.1 Firefox/3.5.9 It is my suspicion, as unfortunately the Bill and Melinda Gates foundation turned down my request for a grant to do full market research that the 99% of openSUSE users will never use the userdirs feature and a good deal won't even use apache. If the admin of a system wants userdirs, it's very easy for him to mkdir it himself in /etc/skel and he can do it for all his existing users too: (dir=public_html ; getent passwd | while IFS=: read -r user pass uid gid gecos home shell; do ( [[ "${uid}" -gt 999 ]] && [[ "$home" = "/home"/* ]] ) || continue; echo mkdir "$home/$dir" && echo chown "$uid:$gid" "$home/$dir"; done) # Thank you to #bash for helping put that together, especially \amethyst Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: create new user Actual Results: superfluous directory exists making my home untidy Expected Results: a tidy home directory, apache admin can easily make his own skel if he wants to bob the monkey tells me most suse users don't want or need userdirs and apache sucks and they are using nginx -- 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.
