Created attachment 650900 [details] account-creation.patch I'm using the ROOT variable to create system images. This works fine but user and group accounts are always created in `/`. I have added a patch that works for me, but like to discuss it here as I have no experience in eclass development a.k.a. please be gentle. :)
I just ran into the same issue. I disagree with the patch, however. In EAPI 7, the default ROOT variable is "", not "/", which will (probably?) break commands with '-R ${ROOT}'. Instead I suggest adding it to opts only when ROOT is changed from the default value.
Possible duplicate, please note bug #541406. Also, for my patch concerns, please note bug #671300.
