            Bug ID: 211141
           Summary: pkg+pw: doesn't run pwd_mkdb, maybe other problems
           Product: Base System
           Version: 11.0-BETA1
          Hardware: Any
                OS: Any
            Status: New
          Severity: Affects Many People
          Priority: ---
         Component: bin
          Assignee: freebsd-bugs at FreeBSD.org
          Reporter: lifanov at mail.lifanov.com

On 11.0-BETA1, pkg 1.8.7 can't create users correctly.

For example, this:
[33/36] Installing sane-backends-1.0.25...
===> Creating groups.
Creating group 'saned' with gid '194'.
===> Creating users
Creating user 'saned' with uid '194'.
pw: user 'saned' disappeared during update
pkg: PRE-INSTALL script failed

I can "fix" this by running pwd_mkdb by hand after the failure and reinstalling
the affected package. Same happens with other packages that add users.
