Hello all,
Inspite of reading the documentation several times I am still confused about the different openpkg "user/groups" which can be configured when building the initial openpkg bootstrap package (and their usage thereafter).
By mistake I installed a 2.3 over the top of a running /openpkg (2.2) losing the rpm database and thus all packaging information[1].
I appear to have configured the 2.2 build with openpkg-r but the 2.3 without special users and am having permission problems reinstalling the packages with the old configuration files. I understand the problem but am unsure which permissions need fixing.
I would also like to know if the different openpkg users can be reconfigured on a running system and how this would be done. Where are they defined?
[1] Please can the openpkg-x.y.z-openpkg-2.3.0-2.3.0.ix86-yyy-ope.sh script check before overwriting existing /openpkg/RPM/DB/* files as the consequences of the install are quite difficult to recover from.
Any pointers or explanations of how they are used would be most welcome.
I remember reading something about this before but can not now find the info in the release notes or manual about this topic.
Thanks for any pointers.
Regards,
Simon
