Thanks for the report and patch. This part of the passwd config step will very probably soon be abandoned (after some advice from -devel) because its main purpose was to be run from base-config.....which is dead now. There may be some interest for keeping it for people who setup chroots but this needs more investigation. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
