The chroot method was chosen to get the right user and group name-id
|
||||||
|
mappings, assuming they only come from files (/etc/passwd and group).
|
||||||
|
This assumption might be wrong, e.g. if users/groups also come from
|
||||||
|
ldap or other providers.
|
||||||
|
Thus, it might be better to use ``--numeric-owner`` and not archive any
|
||||||
|
user or group names (but just the numeric IDs) and not use chroot.
