Yann E. MORIN dc1ba281a5 docs/manual: makedevs only accepts numerical values ... Because of a limitation in how makedevs resolves names [0], usernames and groupnames would be resolved with UIDs and GIDs from the host, not the target. Fixing makedevs would involve us rewriting a /etc/passwd and /etc/group parser (not too complex, still not trivial). Document that the user and group fields should only be numbers, not names. Also, the manual is currently misleading, as an example indeed uses names for the user and group fields. Fix that and expand the explanations. The mode field should also be numbers, not a rwx combo. Slight typographical eye-candy about major/minor fields. [0] it uses getpwnma(3) and getgrnam(3) to resolve names to IDs, and those only resolve names on the host (i.e. there is no way to specify a chroot-like feature) Signed-off-by: "Yann E.
