But i think this could be a problem when FEATURES="keepwork" or |
| 9 |
something like this is enabled. If you create (or Mike creates) a new |
| 10 |
user, beginns to install files, then maybe there is an error with |
| 11 |
make test, everything aborts, the new user is deleted. Then someone |
| 12 |
does FEATURES="-test keepwork" emerge dev-foo/bar... you'd have to |
| 13 |
make shure that the new user gets recreated with the same uid and the |
| 14 |
group gets recreated with the same gid and if uid or gid are already |
| 15 |
used in the meantime, then some tricky things have to be done. Or |
| 16 |
something like this. |
