This is new (relatively) user which required in host machine when you make installworld. Months ago I proposed to add check for existence of this user at begin of any actions with sources (for example for interactive mode only, and optional for build-, but mandatory for install- ). But as it seems that just not happened, and more and more peoples are stumbling at same missed user-thing. Second thing, yes, would be good to have more information either in man or in handbook about this user and else. 2013/5/14 Matthias Apitz <guru@unixarea.de> > > Hello, > > Today morning I wanted to make and install a fresh /head to an USB key > for further distribution the usual way: > > ... > # make installworld DESTDIR=/mnt > # make installkernel DESTDIR=/mnt KERNCONF=GENERIC INSTALL_NODEBUG=t > # make distrib-dirs DESTDIR=/mnt > # make distribution DESTDIR=/mnt > > 'installworld' instructed me about the missing user 'auditdistd'; I have > read what src/UPDATING says, but can't find any pointer to the man page > of auditdistd(8) or in our handbook; with Don Google I got to know that I > have to add this with something like > > # pw useradd -n auditdistd -g audit -c "Auditdistd unprivileged user" -d > /var/empty -s /usr/sbin/nologin > > Can someone bring a bit light into this?
