Thoughts? I am not convinced by your classification of cases: <citation> * The user/group does not exist on the system * The user/group exists from a previous package creating it * The user/group is a normal user, overlapping the namespace (e.g. amanda) * The user/group is pre-created by the administrator with a specific UID/GID <citation/> IMO, this is only covers small subset of * user/group does/does not exist on the system * user/group has a privileged/non-privileged uid/gid * user/group needs a privileged uid/gid * user/group needs a fixed/doesn't need a fixed uid/gid * user/group is meant to be used locally/network-wide Ralf -- Fedora-packaging mailing list Fedora-packaging@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-packaging
