Do you have any pointer to how this actually works? So far users/groups
defined in sysusers were created at the end of transaction, which was
pretty useless. Is the change in Fedora about creating the users/groups
after each package is installed or even before? In other words, will the
following still work or will installation complain that the user/groups
do not exist?
%attr(0755, %{qemu_user}, %{qemu_group})
%attr(4750, root, virtlogin)
