I'm having problems again with groupadd, this time is about dbus,
which needs to add a new group called messagebus. I think stage2 with
desktop profile at least should have sys-app/shadow installed.

Should I add a bug report in bugzilla about this?

And, any suggestion about how to install shadow in stage2? I think
that I could create a pkg-bin and then untar inside stage2.

Here you are my specs:

stage1.spec:
subarch: i486
target: stage1
version_stamp: 20091007
rel_type: default
profile: default/linux/x86/2008.0
snapshot: 20091007
source_subpath: default/stage3-i486-20090915

stage2.spec:
subarch: i486
target: stage2
version_stamp: 20091007
rel_type: default
profile: default/linux/x86/2008.0/desktop
snapshot: 20091007
source_subpath: default/stage1-i486-20091007

stage3.spec:
subarch: i486
target: stage3
version_stamp: 20091007
rel_type: default
profile: default/linux/x86/2008.0/desktop
snapshot: 20091007
source_subpath: default/stage2-i486-20091007

Here is what catalyst complains:
