[Bug 1920217] Re: id: ‘clamav’: no such user
@Wileam, since it's in essence a cosmetic issue, I haven't made any plans myself to backport it. The fix itself is pretty straightforward, however I think to get a backport approved by the SRU team, a case would need to be made regarding it having a severe impact on users. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1920217 Title: id: ‘clamav’: no such user To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/clamav/+bug/1920217/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

For example: triage-focal+20.04:~$ if ! id foobar; then echo "foobar needs created"; fi id: ‘foobar’: no such user foobar needs created So, I think the message does not actually indicate a "real" problem, it's just a stray warning from the test that should have been ignored, like: if ! id clamav 2>/dev/null; then ** Changed in: clamav (Ubuntu) Status: New => Triaged ** Changed in: clamav (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided => Low -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1920217 Title: id: ‘clamav’: no such user To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/clamav/+bug/1920217/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
