Description of problem: During F9 install from DVD iso file on hard drive bind-chroot was selected as one of the packages to install. However the correct set of files was not installed into /var/named/chroot/etc/ or /var/named/chroot/var/named/ and the symlink from /etc/named.conf was not made. However once the system was running after install doing yum remove bind-chroot followed by yum install bind-chroot did install the correct files and links using the manual re-install. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): Anaconda as per DVD install iso - Fedora-9-i386-DVD.iso bind-chroot bind-chroot-9.5.0-29.b2.fc9.i386 How reproducible: Same behaviour on two different installs with the same method. Steps to Reproduce: 1. Install F9 from DVD iso and include bind-chroot in package selection 2. On running system check files in /var/named/chroot/ incorrect 3. do yum remove bind-chroot 4. do yum install bind-chroot 5. Now check files in bind chrooted directory are correct and the symlink from /etc/named.conf has been created correctly. bind-chroot now works. Actual results:bind-chroot is not instaled correctly during install. Expected results:bind-chroot should install correctly if selected as one of the packages to install from the install media (DVD iso) Additional info:Tested on two different installs, and install iso tested for sha1sum verification ok.
Please attach /root/install.log to this bug report. Sounds like a bind packaging problem, perhaps.
Created attachment 305451 [details] install.log as requested It certainly seems there was a problem with bind-chroot during install with warnings about user/group "named" not existing.
(In reply to comment #2) > It certainly seems there was a problem with bind-chroot during install with > warnings about user/group "named" not existing. This will be because bind-chroot has no dependency on bind; it should have one to provide the "named" account.
Yes, that dependency was mysteriously dropped, not sure why.
bind-9.5.0-32.rc1.fc9 has been submitted as an update for Fedora 9
Excellent on the update though of course this will hit anyone installing off the original install media, unless there is a re-spin later that people use instead. Perhaps a comment can be added to the release notes if an updated version is made, to warn anyone installing from the original files with no internet connection that they need to install bind-chroot after the install is complete, rather than including it in the package list on the original install?
