Additional Information:
Comment 1 Trond Eivind Glomsrxd 2001-06-07 19:46:27 UTC 
It appends information to the ~/.bashrc for the server-specific user in post,
the account is created in pre. Not a problem. A workaround could be deviced to
get rid of the warning, but it would just get rid of the warning and not solve
any fundamental problems.
Comment 2 Glen Foster 2001-06-07 20:09:19 UTC 
I'm trying to determine if I should ignore this message in the automated rpmlint
tests.  Should I just not worry about this message and filter it out, or are you
planning on making a change to this rpm (I couldn't tell from your response)?
Comment 3 Trond Eivind Glomsrxd 2001-06-07 20:13:08 UTC 
I'll probably work around it (I'm adding this along with other changes right
now), but it's not a bug.
