Make sure that you have [[rpm2cpio]] and [[Cpio]] installed. This is not the only way to extract the tarball. If you know of a better way that has almost no dependencies, by all means add it. Here is one: http://www.xs4all.nl/~bjdouma/disrpm. This bash script depends only on cpio, and furthermore on dd, gzip, bzip2, sed, and either hexdump or od. The script will extract all *.rpm and *.deb packages (if you encounter problems, please try and adjust the HEADER_SIZE, either in the script or as an environment variable).

Introduction to Libuser

The libuser library implements a standardized interface for manipulating and administering user and group accounts. The library uses pluggable back-ends to interface to its data sources.

Project Homepage:

Extracting the RPM

An extracted package can be downloaded from: http://cross-lfs.org/~jciccone/libuser-0.56.16.tar.gz

rpm2cpio Method

Make sure that you have rpm2cpio and Cpio installed. 

rpm2cpio libuser-0.56.16-2.src.rpm | cpio -d -i

disrpm Method

Make sure you have Cpio and a hexdump utility installed. Download bjdouma's disrpm script from http://www.xs4all.nl/~bjdouma/disrpm and use it to extract the rpm. This script also extracts *.deb packages. 

wget http://www.xs4all.nl/~bjdouma/disrpm &&
mv -v disrpm /usr/bin &&
chmod +x /usr/bin/disrpm &&
disrpm -x libuser-0.56.16-2.src.rpm

Both methods will create 2 files. libuser-0.56.16.tar.gz and libuser.spec. It is safe to delete libuser.spec

Dependencies

Required

Optional

Non-Multilib

Compile the package: 

sed -i "/^all:.*libuser/d" docs/Makefile.in &&
./configure --prefix=/usr --sysconfdir=/etc &&
make

Install the package 

make install

Multilib

32Bit

Compile the package: 

sed -i "/^all:.*libuser/d" docs/Makefile.in &&
CC="gcc ${BUILD32}" USE_ARCH=32 PKG_CONFIG_PATH="${PKG_CONFIG_PATH32}" \
./configure --prefix=/usr --sysconfdir=/etc &&
make

Install the package 

make install

N32

Compile the package: 

sed -i "/^all:.*libuser/d" docs/Makefile.in &&
CC="gcc ${BUILDN32}" USE_ARCH=n32 PKG_CONFIG_PATH="${PKG_CONFIG_PATHN32}" \
./configure --prefix=/usr --sysconfdir=/etc --libdir=/usr/lib32 &&
make

Install the package 

make install

64Bit

Compile the package: 

sed -i "/^all:.*libuser/d" docs/Makefile.in &&
CC="gcc ${BUILD64}" USE_ARCH=64 PKG_CONFIG_PATH="${PKG_CONFIG_PATH64}" \
./configure --prefix=/usr --sysconfdir=/etc --libdir=/usr/lib64 &&
make

Install the package 

make install

Configuring

Edit the installed /etc/libuser.conf. Ensure the variable moduledir points to the correct library path for your installed ABI.
