I have upgraded to Fedora 12 on a machine and I had to format the

recognised and created the necessary users.
Which project should I report this problem to? Anaconda?
Anaconda would be the right component. But I'm not convinced that the
behavior you propose is useful enough in general to merit addition to
anaconda (of course, it's the anaconda developers' judgment that counts,
not mine). You can always use a script such as the following to add the
users:
cd /home
for d in *; do
useradd -u $(stat --format=%u "$d") -g $(stat --format=%g "$d")
"$d"
done
