Hi,
I though that once a group was added to the system group file (such as
/etc/group), the backend didn't try to install the
repository/webpages/download area.
It appears that all groups are 'recreated' each time you use
sv_groups. I mean, the the system group file is left updated, but
CvsMakeArea and other backend procedures are called.
Usually this doesn't matter because CvsMakeArea & co exit when they
see that the directory they plan to creat is already present. But this
is no good for the way we update webpages at Savannah (ie ask the
remote machine to update using a 'webservice' call).
Is this normal? It could actually be a bug in a boolean expression in
"if ($no_etc && !$exists) { <do nothing> } else { <update system> }".
Incidentally, this behavior also led my test install to reuse the
existing "gnats" group from Debian, while not creating the associated
"webgnats" one and ruining the 'gnats' project installation.
