Support for 'm' in sysusers file? #2816
Comments
Should the |
Supporting 'm' would be nice of course. It was left out of the initial implementation due to lack of time/energy to think about how to properly implement it, rather than a "never" decision. The implicit user/group creation is indeed something that would cause problems when an explicit entry exists, so I think adding hard requires for both the user and the group is needed. Alternatively we'd need some special logic for dependency resolution of these items, where we'd favor a user/group with an EVR over one without it. |
On a related note, we should probably also generate a group require on a case like this: |
m user group Create Requires/Recommends for both the user and the group. Resolves: rpm-software-management#2816
m user group Create Requires/Recommends for both the user and the group. Resolves: rpm-software-management#2816
m user group Add Provides with groupmember(user/group) and Requires/Recommends for both the user and the group. Extend RPMTAG_SYSUSERS and recognize the groupmember provides during installation. Resolves: rpm-software-management#2816
m user group Add Provides with groupmember(user/group) and Requires/Recommends for both the user and the group. Extend RPMTAG_SYSUSERS and recognize the groupmember provides during installation. Resolves: rpm-software-management#2816

Does it make sense to add support for 'm' lines in sysusers config files? This would mean the following changes:
m
line, e.g. "group-member(groupname) = base64_line"The sysusers.sh scripts already has support for 'm' lines.
