Bug#1016372: uuid-runtime: post-install script gives warnings which seem incorrect

Show all headers | View raw

Hi,

thanks for the report.

Right. Not sure if we can suppress the warning.

uuidd.socket listens on /run/uuidd/request, so thats automatically
created by systemd.

The warning is only shown on first install, as the user then
remains on the system, even if uuid-runtime is purged. One way of
fixing this would probably be switching to DynamicUser.
