Description of problem: Please fix user/group creation in your spec file[1]. There were problems when (UID != GID) && (UID<200) [2]. For example: tryitd:x:194:482:TryIt:/:/sbin/nologin Problem was caused by change/fix of shadow-utis behaviour. useradd does not create group with same GID as user's UID for IDs < 200 (static/reserved) unless it's done this way: getent group qemu >/dev/null || groupadd -g 107 -r qemu getent passwd qemu >/dev/null || \ useradd -r -u 107 -g qemu -G kvm -d / -s /sbin/nologin \ -c "qemu user" qemu This issue should be fixed as soon as possible. Note, it can't be resolved by any update once we have RHEL6 GA. Please fix it in Fedora too. thnx. -------- [1] https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging:UsersAndGroups [2] https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=593683
Why is this an nfs-utils issue?
I see that rpcuser with UID 29 is created in nfs-utils.spec /usr/sbin/useradd -l -c "RPC Service User" -r \ -s /sbin/nologin -u 29 -d /var/lib/nfs rpcuser 2>/dev/null || : according to /usr/share/doc/setup-*/uidgid, there should be also group with same GID created as well. Unfortunately the group is not being created according the packaging guidance. The goal is to create rpcuser(user/group) in same way as nfsnobody.
