Description Paul Tobias 2015-11-04 09:17:54 UTC

When installing app-admin/puppet-agent the puppet user and group is not created. So starting the puppet daemon fails:
# /etc/init.d/puppet start
 * checkpath: owner `puppet:puppet' not found
 * checkpath: owner `puppet:puppet' not found
 * ERROR: puppet failed to start


Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Use a fresh install or remove the puppet user and group if you've installed puppet from app-admin/puppet before
2. emerge app-admin/puppet-agent
3. /etc/init.d/puppet start
Actual Results:  
 * checkpath: owner `puppet:puppet' not found
 * checkpath: owner `puppet:puppet' not found
 * ERROR: puppet failed to start


Expected Results:  
 * Starting puppet ... [ ok ]

The puppet user and group gets created with app-admin/puppet, just not  with  app-admin/puppet-agent.

Proposed patch

Attached proposed patch. Based on the pkg_setup() from app-admin/puppet ebuild. I changed  /var/lib/puppet to /var/run/puppet. This is because there is no /var/lib/puppet directory in puppet-agent. There is no /var/run/puppet directory either, but /var/run/puppet gets created by the /etc/init.d/puppet initscript if it doesn't exists.
