While writing an ebuild for nullmailer I would like to know how to |
| 2 |
determine an unique uid/gid (nullmail/nullmail) which I need in the |
| 3 |
script if I don't want to patch the Makefile. |
| 4 |
|
| 5 |
Grepping through other ebuild's I saw that there are several packages |
| 6 |
which also use useradd/groupadd with a given id (i.e. postgres=70). |
| 7 |
|
| 8 |
Who assigns these ids used in several other ebuild's where system users |
| 9 |
are needed? How can I prevent id collisions without grepping through |
| 10 |
other ebuild-files? |
| 11 |
|
| 12 |
Or should I omit defining sys-users with a fixed id given? |
| 13 |
|

TIA, Martin |
