Description Christian Heim (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2007-02-13 18:28:28 UTC 
Currently, when catalyst installs packages modifying /etc/group, /etc/passwd or /etc/shadow, the old file is getting copied as $name-.

This files are still present when the stage is being captured and thus being present in the final stage.

Find attached a patch against catalyst-2.0.2 to clean those old files.

This is fixed in 2.0.3 which should be hitting the tree shortly.
