this is fine. Lars will submit a new macros package that will redefine the user macro to %nil

That's fine - but nagios.spec should then stop creating that user as part of its %pre script
Okay. But what is the difference to nagios-rpm-macros package? It also contains several other users and groups. Significantly more. And this package is also increasingly used.
nagios-rpm-macros does not have any interaction with user accounts
In fact, it is only meant to build other packages - whereas the user creation is targeting user machines
Sorry. But I don't understand a word.
oh, I see - there is a nagios_user_group_add macro.
That should indeed be nil-ified and not be used anymore. There is no reason for every package to create the user by itself.
the sysusers package is the perfect way and the other packages can then properly require the user/group they need
