Comment 1 Mike A. Harris 2003-05-28 14:25:54 EDT

This was caused by some cleanups I've been trying to make to the packaging,
in which it isn't clear what all things should stay and what should go.  I
removed something that should stay.  Oops.  ;o)

The next build will have this fixed.  Thanks for reporting it, and if you see
any type of similar problems in other subpackages, etc. please report them
in individual reports too, and I'll try to fix them up ASAP.

Thanks again.

Changed script to:

%pre xfs
{
  # Conditionalized to work on RHL 7.1 and 7.2 which do not have /sbin/nologin
  LOGINSHELL=$([ -e /sbin/nologin ] && echo /sbin/nologin || echo /bin/false)
  /usr/sbin/useradd -c "X Font Server" -r -s $LOGINSHELL -u 43 -d /etc/X11/fs
xfs || :
} &> /dev/null || : # Silence output, and ignore errors (Bug #91822)
