The emerge stops already during configure, telling me there was no clamav user/group, but both exist already! checking for ctime_r... yes, and it takes 2 arguments checking for clamav using id... no configure: error: User clamav (and/or group clamav) doesn't exist.

What does `id clamav` say on your system?
Hmmm well, emerge works here but does not create any user/group - not that I would need one, I am running this under amavis:amavis ;-)
i have the same bug here with uclibc/x86/hardened gentoo with user and groups present: clamav:x:101:407:added by portage for clamav:/dev/null:/bin/false clamav:x:407: a work around is to remove the configure option : --enable-id-check but this has probabely some side effects ...
Created attachment 60424 [details, diff] clamav-0.85.1.ebuild.patch removes the --enable-id-check option to configure
This conflicts with bug #72540. Why doesn't getent find the user anyway?
looks like the 'id' program doesnt exit with 0! # id clamav uid=102(clamav) gid=408 groups=408 --> it is there # id clamav > /dev/null 2>&1 && echo "asdf" (nothing) On another gentoo box "asdf" is printed! # emerge -pv coreutils sys-apps/coreutils-5.2.1-r6 +acl -build -debug -hardened +nls (-selinux) -static Any idea?
(In reply to comment #8) > # id clamav > /dev/null 2>&1 && echo "asdf" > (nothing) Yup, gcc-3.4.4, glibc-2.3.5-r0, binutils-2.15.92.0.2-r10, coreutils-5.2.1-r6 > On another gentoo box "asdf" is printed! Yup, gcc-3.3.5-20050130, glibc-2.3.4.20041102-r1, binutils-2.15.92.0.2-r10, coreutils-5.2.1-r6 CCing toolchain and base-system to clarify...
what does `id clamav ; echo $?` show ?
(In reply to comment #10) > what does `id clamav ; echo $?` show ? /me is confused - this one works the same on both systems. uid=81(apache) gid=81(apache) groups=81(apache) 0
Well, I found the problem: user and group clamav did exist, but somehow the user clamav had a non existing group! I never changed anything there, perhaps a bug in an older ebuild?
Hm yes, if one of user's groups is non-existant in /etc/group, id returns 1. Did readding the clamav group (and making user clamav its member) help?
not a coreutils issue then
Yes, giving putting the clamav-user in the right group solved to problem for me. We could close the bug, if you don't want to find out how the user got its wrong group :)
I just checked that all past ebuilds have used the same way to add clamav user and group. It must have been something on your side, or a supernatural occurance (also known as software bug). :) I'm closing this, glad we figured it out.
