[DRE-maint] Bug#854617: gitlab: Package installation/upgrade fails when gitlab_user is changed

[Benjamin Drung]

Package: gitlab
Version: 8.13.11+dfsg-2
Severity: important
Tags: patch

Hi,

I want to use the gitlab package as replacement for our gitlab source
installation, which uses the user 'git' (instead of 'gitlab'). Thus I
changed gitlab_user in /etc/gitlab/gitlab-debian.conf for 'gitlab' to
'git'. I had to adjust the tmpfiles configuration:

    sed 's/gitlab www-data/git www-data/' /usr/lib/tmpfiles.d/gitlab.conf > /etc/tmpfiles.d/gitlab.conf

and the service files:

    for service in mailroom unicorn sidekiq workhorse; do
        path=/etc/systemd/system/gitlab-${service}.service.d
        mkdir -p $path
        printf "[Service]\nUser=git\n" > $path/override.conf
    done

gitlab is running with these changes, but package upgrades will fail,
because grantpriv.sh hard-codes the gitlab user. Please apply the
attached patches for it. Thanks.
