Description Kay Sievers 2014-05-28 10:32:43 UTC
Please add new static uid/gid pairs for systemd services:
  systemd-timesync
  systemd-network

Thanks!

Comment 1 Ondrej Vasik 2014-05-28 11:48:05 UTC
I no longer can assign uid/gid pairs myself, FPC approval is required here (see https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging:UsersAndGroups and Soft Static Allocation). Please include the link to the FPC ticket, once is created - so I can track the decision and assign the IDs if approved by FPC.

Comment 2 Ondrej Vasik 2014-06-19 21:21:44 UTC
Any update? Have you asked for FPC approval?

Comment 3 Ondrej Vasik 2014-10-03 12:35:58 UTC
Ping? I will close this request if there is no FPC ticket activity.

Comment 4 Ondrej Vasik 2014-10-30 06:03:08 UTC
Adding several more systemd guys before closing this bugzilla.

Comment 5 Zbigniew Jędrzejewski-Szmek 2014-10-30 12:43:59 UTC
The motivation is to be able to start those daemons in the initramfs. For security reasons it is important to run them as non-root. They create some state files, so uid used in the initramfs has to be the same as the one used on real root.

Please don't close this yet, one of us will file the FPC ticket.

Comment 6 Ondrej Vasik 2014-12-15 12:23:51 UTC
Any change here? Is the FPC ticket already filed?

Comment 7 Zbigniew Jędrzejewski-Szmek 2014-12-15 14:42:21 UTC
Now it's filed: https://fedorahosted.org/fpc/ticket/481. Sorry for the delay.

Done in Rawhide - setup-2.9.5-1.fc22:
* Fri Jan 30 2015 Ondrej Vasik <ovasik> - 2.9.5-1
- assign uidgid for systemd-network(192:192) - FPC 481,bz#1102002
- assign uidgid for systemd-resolve(193:193) - FPC 481,bz#1102002

Not assigning the systemd-timesync as it got +3/-3 votes.
Once it is clear there is no longer expected approval of systemd-timesync, I can run F20/F21 updates.
