Hi, I have some ebuilds which use enewuser to create groups and users in pkg_setup(), and make use of those groups and users in src_install() in exeopts, insopts etc.
Is there any reason that this would not always work reliably with binpkgs? Ie. regardless of whether I am using portage or portage-utils to install binpkgs with such pkg_setup() and src_install() combinations? Should it matter if the groups and users already exist? I expect no. I would expect it to always work reliably, because exeopts/insopts user and group arguments are looked up by install at run time. I think I had a problem with this yesterday, but I can't reproduce it. Thanks //Peter
