Alpine user missing in alpine cloud image

Hello,

Using the online “try incus” today:

ubuntu@tryit:~$ incus launch images:alpine/edge/cloud c1
Launching c1
ubuntu@tryit:~$ incus ls                           
+------+---------+---------------------+----------------------------------------------+-----------+-----------+
| NAME |  STATE  |        IPV4         |                     IPV6                     |   TYPE    | SNAPSHOTS |
+------+---------+---------------------+----------------------------------------------+-----------+-----------+
| c1   | RUNNING | 10.93.56.239 (eth0) | fd42:a52:de59:8b8b:216:3eff:fe58:8513 (eth0) | CONTAINER | 0         |
+------+---------+---------------------+----------------------------------------------+-----------+-----------+
ubuntu@tryit:~$ incus exec c1 -- sh
~ # ls /home
~ # id alpine
id: unknown user alpine

It looks like there is no more alpine user in the alpine/cloud image. Is that expected?

Cheers.

That’s normal
