    What is the best way to create "homeless" system user during InstallPackage or Compile? What should I put in recipe?

    If it's a rootless system you're targeting, adding users would require super user privileges on that system, but the mechanism should be the same as for a native GoboLinux installation.
    Starting from Scripts 2.8.3 you can add a file in the Resources directory called Requirements. It has the following syntax for for users and groups:

    required_groups=(
    foo
    baz gid=40
    )
    required_users=(
    asdf groups=baz
    bar home=/Some/directory groups=foo,baz uid=200
    )

    where any "option=" could be skipped.

    Thank you.

    It looks much more gobo-way then "useradd"-ing during pre_build.
