OK, there are two things at play here. The duplicate warnings are due to the way rpm-ostree works. We auto-generate tmpfiles entries for `/var` directories because the OSTree model requires `/var` to be empty. Right now, we don't really check if the entries we synthesize are already included in other tmpfiles configs from other packages. We *could* do that, though not sure of the cost/benefit given that dupes are safely ignored. > Those users are indeed not defined: They should be in `/usr/lib/{passwd,group}`. See https://ostree.readthedocs.io/en/latest/manual/adapting-existing/#usrlibpasswd. Those errors shouldn't happen post-pivot -- can you confirm that they come from systemd-tmpfiles in the initramfs? > Those errors shouldn't happen post-pivot -- can you confirm that they come from systemd-tmpfiles in the initramfs? Indeed, this was in the initramfs. I guess we might want to exclude that tmpfiles config from the initramfs, but that's something to handle in systemd. I can confirm that e.g. wheel and adm groups are resolved properly by 'getent group' > We auto-generate tmpfiles entries for `/var` directories because the OSTree model requires `/var` to be empty. Ack. I'd like to see a completely error-free boot, but this is indeed minor issue. I see another mini-problem though: $ ls -l /usr/lib/tmpfiles.d/rpm-ostree-1-autovar.conf -rw-------. 2 root root 6134 Jan 1 1970 /usr/lib/tmpfiles.d/rpm-ostree-1-autovar.conf The permissions should be rw-r--r-- so that users don't see errors. Feel free to close this though bug though, it seems that things are working mostly as intended. |
