Hi,
The postinst looks like (modulo wrapping):
"""
# upgrade existing libuuid user/group.
if getent group libuuid >/dev/null && ! getent group uuidd >/dev/null ; then
groupmod --new-name uuidd libuuid
fi
if getent passwd libuuid >/dev/null && ! getent passwd uuidd >/dev/null
; then
[...]
fi
"""
In both cases, the condition for the ifs seems to be false. But:
"""
$ getent group libuuid >/dev/null && echo "group libuuid present"; \
getent group uuidd >/dev/null && echo "group uuidd present"
group uuidd present
$ getent group libuuid >/dev/null && ! getent group uuidd >/dev/null
$ getent passwd libuuid >/dev/null ; echo "User libuuid present" ; \
getent passwd uuidd >/dev/null && echo "User uuidd present"
User libuuid present
User uuidd present
$ getent passwd libuuid >/dev/null && ! getent passwd uuidd \
>/dev/null && echo "true"
"""
I "only" have /group/ uuidd, but I have both users present!?
Inside the user migration, there is a remark that usermod will fail if
the process is running. Does that hold for groupmod as well?
