ValueError: No references to base.group_hr_user

[OpenBMS JSC]

I experience the following error when creating a new DB. Steps to produce

1. Create a new DB (e.g. newtest) with demo data, locale=vi_VN.
2. Skip the configuration wizard
3. Install the account module from the "Administration => Modules => Modules". It generates the error below

Looks like same issue when updating an existing database.

Just refreshed modules from trunk and this is the result of updating a database with NO HR module installed:

Temporary fix:

Remove the two lines in "addons/account/security/ir.model.access.csv" that refer to "group_hr_user"

Has now allowed database to be updated.

Seems references to "group_hr_user" should not exist in "account" module unless "hr" module is installed.

Need proper solution.

[OpenBMS JSC (openbmsjsc)]

I must add that this never happens before in the last couple weeks or so. This might also the cause for problem I experience in https://bugs.launchpad.net/openobject-addons/+bug/599559

[OpenBMS JSC (openbmsjsc)]

"Seems references to "group_hr_user" should not exist in "account" module unless "hr" module is installed."

If account module need to refer to something in "hr" module, shouldn't this made obvious using dependencies?

I tried to remove 2 lines as suggested but experience the below error
