Label References and RESTful Authentication in Rails 2

I’m working on a new project that is using the RESTful Authentication generator with Rails 2. As I started to take advantage of the label references capability in Rails 2, I ran into some problems. The default fixtures provided by RESTful Authentication look like this:

quentin:
id: 1
login: quentin
email: quentin@example.com
salt: 7e3041ebc2fc05a40c60028e2c4901a81035d3cd
crypted_password: 00742970dc9e6319f8019fd54864d3ea740f04b1 # test
created_at: <%= 5.days.ago.to_s :db %>

aaron:
id: 2
login: aaron
email: aaron@example.com
salt: 7e3041ebc2fc05a40c60028e2c4901a81035d3cd
crypted_password: 00742970dc9e6319f8019fd54864d3ea740f04b1 # test
created_at: <%= 1.days.ago.to_s :db %>

The problem is that when you use label references, you cannot specify the id (the framework wants to generate the ID rather than let your DB generate it):

quentin_workgroup_1:
workgroup: quentin_workgroup
user: quentin

aaron_workgroup_1:
workgroup: aaron_workgroup
user: aaron

The Fix? Simple – remove the IDs from the generated users.yml and things will work properly.
