0004761: CSWpuppet fails to install if a group 100 is already used

I moved this bug to be filed against cas_usergroup as this is the underlying root of the problem. The puppet package just happens to deliver a file with cswusergroup as the class.

I think I know how to fix this fairly quickly. I'll take a look tonight.

Can you please simulate this function (run via /bin/sh -x) on your box with GID_MIN set to either 100 or your local system value (provide that info if not 100). GID_MAX should be 999 (or your local value).

Thanks

first_avail_gid() {
  for gid in `/usr/bin/getent group | cut -d: -f3 | sort -n`
  do
    [ $gid -lt $GID_MIN ] && continue
    [ $gid -gt $GID_MAX ] && break
    eval GID_TAKEN_$gid=1
  done

  gid=$GID_MIN
  while test $gid -le $GID_MAX
  do
    [ `eval echo \$\{GID_TAKEN_$gid:-0}` -eq 1 ] || { echo $gid; return; }
    gid=`expr $gid + 1`
  done
  echo -1
}

Hi - I can't recreate this problem. I've just added a dummy group 100 to the system and added CSWpuppet and it just created the puppet group as 102.

Can you give me some details about your system please? OS version, if puppet was already installed, and anything else you think might be pertinent.

Thanks

Ah, duh, sorry Ben, hadn't noticed your updates. You'll probably nailed it.
