[OE-core] [PATCH 2/3] useradd.bbclass: new class for managing user/group permissions

[Richard Purdie]

Hi Scott,

This is looking good, thanks for the changes! I just have some cosmetic
things to tweak before it goes in.

No need to use createCopy here since you don't change OVERRIDES or write
to the datastore at all. Just use d directly.

You can just do:

preinst = d.getVar('pkg_preinst_%s' % pkg, True) or d.getVar('pkg_preinst', True)

and ditch all the createCopy/OVERRIDES stuff.

if packages and pkgs not in packages:
