Yes, this is normal. Packages during a treecompose are being installed
in a different
environment than what they're used to (i.e. in a separate rootfs
instead of on the live
/) and this can cause scriptlets to seem confused (e.g. not having
systemd running,
or SELinux active, etc...).

I think this is normal dracut output AFAIK. Skips over modules which
need certain
components baked into the tree.

rpm-ostree has special handling for passwd/group entries. See e.g.
http://ostree.readthedocs.io/en/latest/manual/adapting-existing/#usrlibpasswd
and "check-passwd" in
http://rpm-ostree.readthedocs.io/en/latest/manual/treefile/.
