Hi, I'm currently trying to work on fixing a bug which arises when attempting to layer the `systemtap-runtime` package on a Fedora Atomic distro. I think this is fairly high priority since this package is pulled in as a dependency of `qemu`, which is probably fairly commonly used.
Fedora Atomic bug documented here: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2359764 I think this bug comes from the systemtap .spec's use of traditional (non sysusers.d) methods to handle user creation. I tried to author a PR to solve this issue in the Fedora package repo: https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/systemtap/pull-request/32 After submitting the PR, I was informed that a prior PR had already solved this issue: https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/systemtap/pull-request/31 That prior PR made it into this recent release, which is now available in F42 as of a few days ago: https://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-2025-fb27254eca Unfortunately, this hasn't fixed the issue for me. So I'm looking again at the spec (maintained upstream) to try and work out what might still be the problem and possibly re-factor my PR to properly solve the issue. I might be completely missing something, but the conditional branching logic introduced by the PR above (f892ad26592f97d32984ae088634e82c3c973138) seems to be backwards. From what I can tell, the branching conditional logic is actually checking for any version of Fedora *below* 42 and runs the updated sysusers.d logic if that check matches. This seems to be the opposite of the intended logic, as newer Fedora versions should use the newer sysusers.d logic. I could fix this with a PR but wanted to get some second opinions as I must be missing something. A second committer came along afterwards and added (fc1a9c24f7167b6c11fed67597141730ee478114) which adds similar logic to check for RHEL versions *below* 11. Any thoughts? If I'm right in thinking this is an error in the logic, I'll try and rework my PR. -- _______________________________________________ devel mailing list -- devel@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe send an email to devel-le...@lists.fedoraproject.org Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/devel@lists.fedoraproject.org Do not reply to spam, report it: https://pagure.io/fedora-infrastructure/new_issue
