Hi,

I have a special package that creates users and groups
via inherit useradd. This package doesn't depend on any
others but it is depended on, both via DEPENDS and RDEPENDS
by packages using those users/groups in their do_install
scripts.

This works for packaging becase these ownerships
are encoded in the packages, confirmed by rpm -qp --dump ...

However, during do_rootfs, a couple of
"user/group XXX does not exist, using root"
messages appear for the packages depending on others
creating these users/groups.

log.do_rootfs shows that the package installation ordering
does not follow RDEPENDS. Instead, it's practically an
alphabetical order when running dnf.

This doesn't just involve my custom packages, but also clamav
plus another one in which I ship a small limited set of
virus signatures, also chown'd to clamav and with RDEPENDS
on clamav.

What is the correct solution to this?

You can define it via conf metadata e.g.

INHERIT += "extrausers"


EXTRA_USERS_PARAMS += "\
     useradd foo; \
     usermod -p 'XXXX' foo; \
     usermod -a -G adm foo; \
     usermod -a -G video foo; \
     usermod -a -G audio foo; \
     usermod -a -G systemd-journal foo; \
"

Thanks, I will try it.
You mean local.conf or layer.conf?

local.conf or site.conf or your distro conf anyone is ok
