Hi, I recently ran into issues related to the current state of sysusers in Fedora, i.e. macro shenanigans and sysusers configs in dist-git. I thought it would be nice to finally cross the finish line and make native rpm support for sysusers default. There is still some work to do in order to have this feature fully integrated in Fedora. These are the work items that I am aware of, (a) Put together Fedora System-Wide Change Proposal (b) Remove rpm patch so that we generate strong dependencies on virtual user and group provides (c) Update Fedora Packaging Guidelines and stop recommending use of %sysusers_create_compat macro From above the most pressing is (a) because we are approaching the submission deadline for change proposals. I'd be willing to put together a draft of the proposal if you agree. > All the necessary user/group provides should already be in place since > F40 mass rebuild, and it shouldn't matter which mechanism actually > creates the users, so it's not committing to any changes in user/group > handling as such, this is just an extra packaging hygiene step in the > process. Given above, I think that the proposal should be uncontroversial as it is mostly about cleanup and finishing touches because the feature as such is already present in rpm. Let me know what you guys think.
