Reproducible: Always
Comment 1 Mads Kiilerich 2023-06-13 12:20:52 UTC 
sysinfo might not be a good alternative. It seems much more high level and inefficient. Looking at the source, it is parsing /etc/passwd directly, ignoring nss and whatever user database it might dispatch to.

whoami seems like a better alternative for some use cases, even though it isn't packaged yet.
Comment 2 Fedora Release Engineering 2023-08-16 08:10:11 UTC 
This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora Linux 39 development cycle.
Changing version to 39.
