Manuel,
I was thinking about the situation that Alan Lord had when the
testing for lfs user/group passed/failed.
Should a more robust testing for the existence of the lfs user and
group take place inside jhalfs. We validate the socks off of everything
else and the tool could reside in 'func_validate_configs.sh'. The
existing tests in makefile could be retained.
.. possible tests
lfs group exists /etc/group
lfs user exists /etc/passwd
(user) lfs gid = (group) lfs gid
(user) lfs homeDir = /home/lfs (What if it is something else?)
If these 4 tests are true then the makefile tests will succeed.
If they fail should jhalfs do the creation automatically or force the
user to do the work?
George
