Hi! Changes since v2: - Make the 'grep' command more accurate, i.e. make sure user 'myuser' exists in /etc/passwd and not 'myuser123'. Suggested by Zorro Lang. Changed since v1: - 'user' variable in _require_user_exists() is now local, as suggested by Eric Biggers. (I've also added Darrick's Reviewed-by tag to the 2nd patch only.) Original cover-letter: Test generic/079 currently fails if for some reason the 'nobody' or 'daemon' users don't exist: *** starting up add_acl(/mnt/scratch/079/immutable.f) did not set errno == EPERM add_acl(/mnt/scratch/079/immutable.d) did not set errno == EPERM add_acl(/mnt/scratch/079/append-only.f) did not set errno == EPERM add_acl(/mnt/scratch/079/append-only.d) did not set errno == EPERM testing immutable...FAILED! (2 tests failed) testing append-only...FAILED! (2 tests failed) *** cleaning up The first patch that follows adds a new function _require_user_exists() that will verify a user exists in the system (and refactors existent _require_user() to use the new function). The second patch is the actual test fix.
