Re: [HTCondor-users] Fedora 21

[Brian Bockelman <bbockelm@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi,

Further investigation shows - 
- RPM does not create the directory on install.
- RPM does set things up so the directory is created on boot if not present.*

So, it does look like some tweaking of the RPM will be necessary.  TimT - can you file a ticket?

* NOTE: We have reserved a specific UID for HTCondor on Fedora (this allows consistent UIDs if you put some pieces on a shared filesystem [not recommended]); much less effort is required from you if you don't try to change this (i.e., put the condor user in LDAP).
