Looks fine for me. Could you please get the required qa acks. * Mon Jun 07 2010 Richard Hughes <rhughes> - 0.5.14-4 - Create a haldaemon group in the spec file as shadow-utils has been updated and no longer automatically creates a private group for UIDs < 200. - Resolves: #594305 This error is now showing up in anaconda's buildinstall process: Error in PREIN scriptlet in rpm package hal-0.5.14-4.el6.i686 useradd: group 'kvm' does not exist error: %pre(hal-0.5.14-4.el6.i686) scriptlet failed, exit status 6 error: install: %pre scriptlet failed (2), skipping hal-0.5.14-4.el6 This error is blocking the nightlies. I will untag hal-0.5.14-4.el6 for now. (In reply to comment #4) > Error in PREIN scriptlet in rpm package hal-0.5.14-4.el6.i686 > > useradd: group 'kvm' does not exist > error: %pre(hal-0.5.14-4.el6.i686) scriptlet failed, exit status 6 > error: install: %pre scriptlet failed (2), skipping hal-0.5.14-4.el6 Sincere apologies. This was a classic copy-and-paste mistake from your example. I'm building a new package now [http://brewweb.devel.redhat.com/brew/taskinfo?taskID=2504915]. Thanks. Verified on hal-0.5.14-6.el6 (clean install of 20100620)
haldaemon group is being created during installation of hal, as shadow-utils is no longer creating automatically groups for UID < 200
$ grep hal_user_uid hal.spec
%define hal_user_uid 68
getent group haldaemon >/dev/null || groupadd -g %{hal_user_uid} -r haldaemon
useradd -r -u %{hal_user_uid} -g haldaemon -G haldaemon -d '/' -s /sbin/nologin \
# grep 68 /etc/group
haldaemon:x:68:haldaemon
Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.0 is now available and should resolve the problem described in this bug report. This report is therefore being closed with a resolution of CURRENTRELEASE. You may reopen this bug report if the solution does not work for you. |
Description of problem: Please fix user/group creation in your spec file[1]. There were problems when (UID != GID) && (UID<200) [2]. For example: tryitd:x:194:482:TryIt:/:/sbin/nologin Problem was caused by change/fix of shadow-utis behaviour. useradd does not create group with same GID as user's UID for IDs < 200 (static/reserved) unless it's done this way: getent group qemu >/dev/null || groupadd -g 107 -r qemu getent passwd qemu >/dev/null || \ useradd -r -u 107 -g qemu -G kvm -d / -s /sbin/nologin \ -c "qemu user" qemu This issue should be fixed as soon as possible. Note, it can't be resolved by any update once we have RHEL6 GA. Please fix it in Fedora too. thnx. -------- [1] https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging:UsersAndGroups [2] https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=593683
