Description jmp 2006-06-27 23:21:26 UTC

Description of problem:
non standard group inconsistency

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
 0.76-1.fc5

How reproducible: Always


Steps to Reproduce:
1. within a spec file set %file %defattr(-,mail,apache,-)
2. make the RPM
3. run rpmlint -i -v
  
Actual results:
A file in this package is owned by a non standard group.
Standard groups are:

- root          - bin           - dip
- daemon        - sys           - ftp
- adm           - tty           - smb
- disk          - lp            - cdrom
- mem           - kmem          - pppusers
- wheel         - floppy        - cdwriter
- mail          - news          - audio
- uucp          - man           - dos
- games         - gopher        - nobody
- users         - console       - utmp
- lists         - gdm           - xfs
- popusers      - slipusers     - slocate
- x10           - urpmi         - apache
- postgres      - rpcuser       - rpm

Expected results:
a list which do not include 'apache'.

Additional info:
according to me, cheking is done against STANDARD_GROUPS_NEW variable (within
setuplist.py) but display variable contents STANDARD_GROUPS_OLD when reporting
the problem.

Actually, setuplist.py is probably dead code; the list of "standard" users and
groups was just hardcoded in the explanation.  The actual lists probably need
some work, but the root issue is now fixed upstream and will be in the next
rpmlint package revision: http://rpmlint.zarb.org/cgi-bin/trac.cgi/changeset/1210

Comment 2 Ville Skyttä 2006-06-30 09:26:05 UTC

Comment 3 jmp 2006-06-30 13:46:01 UTC

yes, my test show it fixed (thanks)

Comment 4 Ville Skyttä 2006-06-30 14:02:00 UTC

Well, it certainly was a bug, so NOTABUG is not quite an accurate resolution ;)
