I doubt there will be any problems that merit rebuilding the package. The user should be known to the system because CUPS assumes that user id when creating files during start up (I think). So in the worst case I think you would just have to double check ownership of some files. Ah but you are in luck. The user lp is created with a base LFS system. The BLFS instruction to create the user is redundant, probably as a let's-make-darn-sure-the-user-exists measure. So no need to worry. ~ -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/blfs-support FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
