Yes, this is understood. Several other ebuilds also call enewgroup |
| 6 |
and enewuser, and would also fail if emerged at the same point. |

enewgroup fails because eutils.eclass implements that function with a |
| 9 |
call to groupadd (not the problem!) but there is no groupadd command |
| 10 |
available in the system at that point (the problem!). |
| 11 |
|
| 12 |
So where is the problem exactly? I don't know. |

Make eutils.eclass somehow ensure that the neccessary commands will |
| 15 |
be available? |
| 16 |
|
| 17 |
Make eutils.eclass depend on shadow? (I don't like that idea.) |
| 18 |
Have an alternative implementation for these commands built into |
| 19 |
eutils.class as fallback? (I don't like that either.) |
| 20 |
Have an alternative implementation somewhere else? Where? |
| 21 |
|
| 22 |
Make all ebuilds which call enewgroup or similar functions depend on |
| 23 |
shadow? (Feels very wrong to me.) |
