Hi

One of the patches in opensuse cobbler package confused me a bit.

https://build.opensuse.org/package/show?project=systemsmanagement&package=cobbler

The patch users_patch.diff patches cobbler/action_reposync.py to do

$ chown -R root:wwwrun

after a reposync. But there is no wwwrun group in opensuse. The wwwrun user is 
in group www (see 
below). Since SLES is a bit difficult to come by i wonder if there is a wwwrun 
group there and that 
patch targets this platform.

$ id wwwrun
uid=30(wwwrun) gid=8(www) groups=126(git),8(www)

In cobblerd.py it just uses user wwwrun (no group) which seems to be correct.

And naturally i get this in a reposync log with the patch.

[...] - DEBUG | received on stderr: chown: invalid group: 'root:wwwrun'

Is someone here using cobbler on SLES (running. Not installing SLES)? I try to 
fix cobbler on 
openSUSE and perhaps it would be nice not to break it on SLES while doing that. 
So if someone 
running it on SLES here is willing to answer me some questions about that 
system if i need some 
clarifications that would be nice.

Mike
