Description Joe Harvell 2018-04-29 02:30:54 UTC

Created attachment 528746 [details]
output of sudo armv7a-pip-linux-gnueabi-emerge --info

When I install packages with cross-emerge and the package adds a new user to the ROOT specified in $PORTAGE_CONFROOT.

For example, I run:

sudo armv7a-pip-linux-gnueabi-emerge -a1v sys-apps/systemd

The package installs successfully in /usr/armv7a-pip-linux-gnueabi.  However etc/passwd, etc/group and etc/shadow in /usr/armv7a-pip-linux-gnueabi are not modified to contain the various users and groups systemd normally adds.

I have to add them manually.

I think this is pretty much handled by bug 541406 which is now fixed.
