Description of problem: MAKEDEV uses 'getent' command in its %pre scripts: %pre # Add the floppy group and the vcsa user. getent group floppy >/dev/null || groupadd -g 19 -r floppy getent passwd vcsa >/dev/null || \ useradd -r -d /dev -s /sbin/nologin -u 69 \ -c "virtual console memory owner" vcsa exit 0 %-------------------- 'getent' command is provided by glibc-common package but MAKEDEV does not require it. This creates installation errors when doing a minimal Fedora install: %packages --nobase %end Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): MAKEDEV-3.23-4 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. do a minimal Fedora install %packages --nobase %end 2. look at install.log
Jesse rebuilt the other day to make sure we require /usr/bin/getent, so this should be fixed in 3.23-5.
when will MAKEDEV-3.23-5 get built for rawhide?
Weird, the spec file got updated but it never got rebuilt. I'm taking care of that right now. Thanks for alerting me.
