I'm running into problems with the "src/su dummy -c "make

telling me that user dummy doesn't exist with both 5.92 and 5.93, but
5.2.1 passes without errors.
Looking at my notes and scripts, this is the first time I've tried
either of the 5.9x versions of coreutils. So, can anybody confirm that
the testsuite works for them with coreutils-5.9{2,3} please ?
Yep, I ran into the same issue. Testing suggested that the /etc/passwd
entry for users you want to `su' to need a home dir. I therefore
changed the creation of the dummy user to:
echo "dummy:x:1000:1000::/root:/bin/bash" >> /etc/passwd
Have you updated your scripts to reflect the SVN upgrade of coreutils
(http://websvn.linuxfromscratch.org/diff.php?repname=LFS&path=%2Ftrunk%2FBOOK%2Fchapter06%2Fcoreutils.xml&rev=7098&sc=0
should give you a decent overview of what's needed by the new version)?
Regards,
Matt.
