Note that according to base-passwd package You *may not* use any uids or gids in the 60000-64999 range without *first* requesting an allocation from [email protected] and waiting
so perhaps libraries that tell if an user account is system or not, need to check if UID is in range from FIRST_SYSTEM_UID to LAST_SYSTEM_UID *or* if it's in range 60000-64999. In case the UID is in range 60000-64999, a custom lookup should be made to decide if any given UID in this range is a system account or user account. I'm not familiar with the way all those reserved UIDs are used but I'd assume that any UID in that range is special and may require UID specific knowledge about being normal vs system account. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1903509 Title: libvirt-daemon-system creates system user without marking it as system user for login To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libvirt/+bug/1903509/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
