OK, so what are my options here, given that the ceph project still needs a fixed UID/GID for the ceph user and group?
1) We (openSUSE) can follow Debian's reserved 60-64K range (which also is the proposed LSB solution is to this problem, as Ludwig mentioned before in https://github.com/LinuxStandardBase/lsb/blob/master/documents/wip/userNamin...),
Let LSB say that it will allocate numbers from 4294967293 backwards. [4294967294 is already given to "nfsnobody"] Define no explicit range size. (Like how heap and stack grow for towards each other for x86 processes.) Drop the 60-64K range from the spec.
Might be a workable solution indeed. cu Ludwig -- (o_ Ludwig Nussel //\ V_/_ http://www.suse.de/ SUSE Linux GmbH, GF: Felix Imendörffer, Jane Smithard, Jennifer Guild, Dilip Upmanyu, Graham Norton, HRB 21284 (AG Nürnberg) Maxfeldstraße 5; 90409 Nürnberg; Germany -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org
