[yocto] How to use same user in two recipes?

[Fabien Lahoudere]

Thanks Ross
The problem is that it fails with Pyro and also with oe-core master:
I use recipe in meta-skeleton/recipes-skeleton/useradd/ to create users and the following
testuser.bb:
--------------------------------------------------------testuser.bb---------------------------------
-----------------------SUMMARY = ""DESCRIPTION = ""PR = "r1"LICENSE = "MIT"LIC_FILES_CHKSUM =
"file://${COREBASE}/meta/COPYING.MIT;md5=3da9cfbcb788c80a0384361b4de20420"
DEPENDS += " useradd-example "
SRC_URI = " "
S = "${WORKDIR}"
do_install () {	install -d -m 755 ${D}${datadir}/testuser1	echo hello >
${D}${datadir}/testuser1/file	chown -R user1 ${D}${datadir}/testuser1}
FILES_${PN} = "${datadir}/testuser1/* "-------------------------------------------------------------
--------------------------------------------------------------
and I have the following error and users are not populated in testuser recipe-sysroot/etc/passwd
