Hello,
Bacula package already has a registered user group of 33 in:
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/PackageUserRegistry
so I will keep on using that; no change. The spec file always
contained that uid/gid in the build.
What I will change is just the way it is created, and the link Tom
sent is exactly the one I was looking at.
The link Tom sent provides a way to create and uid/gid for a given
user/group name, not for a specific uid/gid (i.e. you'll end up with a
"bacula" user and group but the uid/gid may be different on each
system). However, bacula does not need the uid/gid to be the same on
multiple systems so that doesn't matter.
I found fedora-usermgmt already in place in the spec file so I
thought
it was right to ask.
I never understood why bacula used that in the first place.
