useradd.bbclass: avoid do_rootfs error for debian package backendChenQi/CONFFILES
If /etc/login.defs is treated as a configuration file, then we would meet errors at do_rootfs time telling us that useradd/groupadd cannot execute correctly. This is because the dpkg handles config file specially, the login.defs is temporarily renamed as login.defs.dpkg-new. How ubuntu deals the user/group adding problem? They do it at postinst of the package. And, the postinst script of a package would possibly do `chown' of its files or directories. The above strategy is not suitable for OE. Because we do chown in do_install and add user/group in preinst scripts of the packages. That's why we need this patch so that do_rootfs don't fail. Signed-off-by: Chen Qi <Qi.Chen@windriver.com>
