Description of problem: During installation of ircd-hybrid rpm script fails to create ircd user Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): ircd-hybrid-7.2.3-2 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. rpm -vi ircd-hybrid-7.2.3-2.fc8.i386.rpm Actual results: No ircd user created in /etc/passwd Expected results: ircd user should be created Additional info: Unfortunately the useradd code in %pre script has stderr redirected to /dev/null so useful error messages are not seen (why would anyone redirect stderr to /dev/null?). Perhaps it is because of the "fedora-useradd 14 -s ..." where the 14 is probably a syntax error? This is an old bug that has been around since fc4.
