Hi all

I hope this is the right place to ask questions about mkosi.
If not, please advise where I should ask.

I'm building fedora-26 in a directory.
I want to add a normal user, so I've added to mkosi.postinst:

useradd dev -p mypassword
usermod dev -a -G wheel

These two commands work fine, but the permissions are not correct:

# ls -l /home/
total 4
drwxrwxr-x 2 root root 4096 Jul  3 18:13 dev

Is this a bug? Or maybe what I'm trying to do should be accomplished in another way?
As a workaround, I might try add a third line to mkosi.postinst:

chown -R dev:dev /home/dev



Further to above, there are more problems:

- files in /etc/skel were not copied in /home/dev
- dev user password is not saved in /etc/passwd, so I cannot log in with that user

These problems do not occur if I create an user within the container:

# useradd test -p testing!
# ls -a /home/test/
.  ..  .bash_logout  .bash_profile  .bashrc
# ls -l /home
drwx------ 2 test test 4096 Jul  5 11:45 test

So it's not a bug in shadow-utils.
It must be something about how mkosi.postinst work. Unfortunately I don't have any mkosi examples to look at, in order to find any easy mistake I might have done.


Ok, problem found: I put a file in mkosi.extra/home/dev instead of mkosi.extra/etc/skel. mkosi first copied that file, then launched the postinst script with the useradd command, which warned (correctly) that /home/dev already existed.

Sorry for the noise
