CI: Handle existing UID/GID when creating container user - #7
Merged
Conversation
Reuse existing group and user entries when the requested GID/UID are already present instead of failing during groupadd or useradd. Rename existing entries to the requested username when needed and update the account's primary group, home directory, and shell settings. Continue creating the group and user when the requested IDs do not already exist. Allow the script to work correctly with Ubuntu 24.04 base images that already ship with a default ubuntu user and group using UID/GID 1000. Signed-off-by: ffrancis <ffrancis@qti.qualcomm.com>
