Do you by any chance include an old setup package in your image which creates 
app user as well?

Thanks,

Subject: [IVI] User 'app' being created with wrong uid

When I create our image based on Tizen 3.0 IVI, sometimes (but not always) app 
user is created with uid=9999 rather than the 5000 as expected. I know the 
ivi-adaptation.post script attempts to create the user with -u 5000, but the 
mic log says 'user already exists', so it is being created elsewhere. Where 
would this be?

I also tried doing a usermod after the fact, but this doesn't seem possible 
since changing the runlevel with systemctl locks me out of the system, and 
otherwise says 'Account 'app' is currently in use'.

Ideally, the uid shouldn't matter, but I've seen two behaviors when this is not 
the case:

(1) the graphical session doesn't start; I have not duplicated this recently; 
instead:

(2) using pkgcmd installs the apps "successfully" but afterward (pkgcmd -l), it 
reports them as not installed.
