That seems like a good idea, but I think the docs say that user creation |
| 15 |
should be in pkg_setup() and certainly this is the case with dropbear? |
| 16 |
Seems a bit dangerous to re-run pkg_setup for every package...? |

I also noticed that since I have only busybox in my final build and it's |
| 19 |
got pretty lousy support for adduser I may need to inject directly into |
| 20 |
/etc/ |
| 21 |

Actually the docs here |
| 23 |
http://devmanual.gentoo.org/ebuild-writing/users-and-groups/index.html |
| 24 |
suggest that this IS supposed to work inside the sandbox and hence we |
| 25 |
might reasonably expect it to work with ROOT= set. However, as Ned |
| 26 |
says, it seems not to work right now... |
