container" will allocate the same uid and gid for a service on each
execution, but only if the corresponding entry in the service list has the
same absolute position as it did before. I.e., if the services are
reordered or if
When an operating-system contains multiple users or groups with the same
name, instantiating it with `guix system` does not cause a validation
failure, nor are the duplicate entries filtered from the resulting /etc
files.
This duplication can happen in a few different ways:
- both entries are man
Hi Danny,
Your idea has a definite elegance to it. :) I did not realize that Linux
supported 32-bit UIDs out-of-the-box. Still, I wonder if this could
