Description Alice Brooks 2024-06-24 10:01:47 UTC 
So I've downloaded the latest Tumbleweed image (20240621) and ran it inside a vm, however any user that's created is no longer created with a matching named group, this includes ones from the initial installer and any new ones created via useradd

You can recreate this either by running through the installer as mentioned above, or something like below:

```
sudo useradd -m test 
cat /etc/group | grep test
```

Prints out nothing, as the group test was never created

The econf patch is broken:
newfstatat(AT_FDCWD, "/etc//usr/etc/login.defs", 0x7ffe8a7bf5b0, AT_SYMLINK_NOFOLLOW) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)
newfstatat(AT_FDCWD, "/run//usr/etc/login.defs", 0x7ffe8a7bf580, AT_SYMLINK_NOFOLLOW) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)
newfstatat(AT_FDCWD, "/etc//usr/etc/login.defs", 0x7ffe8a7bf550, AT_SYMLINK_NOFOLLOW) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)
openat(AT_FDCWD, "/etc//usr/etc/login.defs.d", O_RDONLY|O_NONBLOCK|O_CLOEXEC|O_DIRECTORY) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)
openat(AT_FDCWD, "/run//usr/etc/login.defs.d", O_RDONLY|O_NONBLOCK|O_CLOEXEC|O_DIRECTORY) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)
openat(AT_FDCWD, "/etc//usr/etc/login.defs.d", O_RDONLY|O_NONBLOCK|O_CLOEXEC|O_DIRECTORY) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)

econf_readConfig() has expects different arguments than econf_readDirs,
just replacing the function name will not work.

My bad! Let's drop the patch for now: SR#1183021
