Subject: [gentoo-user] Emerge with --root option : users not created

Hi everyone,

I wanted to submit this as a bug on bugzilla, but I must be sure there is
nothing that I miss.

Let's say I have a /target dir.
If I do 'emerge --root=/target <someport>' (cross-emerge), and that
<someport> is supposed to create users (like vixie-cron, clamav or many
others), users are not created on /target. I can verify that by chrooting on
/target and making something that requires this user (such as launching
clamd for clamav), or simply by looking at /target/etc/passwd to see that
there's no expected users.

Am I missing somethings or is this really a bug ?

Thanks in advance.
