Package: passwd Version: 1:4.1.0-2 Severity: normal Tags: d-i When during a new installation using Debian Installer the base system installation step (which uses debootstrap) fails and is retried, the second installation fails with the following error:
debootstrap: Setting up login (1:4.1.0-2) ... debootstrap: Setting up passwd (1:4.1.0-2) ... debootstrap: no matching password file entry in /etc/passwd debootstrap: delete line 'libuuid:!:13957:0:99999:7:::'? debootstrap: pwck: no changes debootstrap: Please correct the error and rerun `/sbin/shadowconfig on' debootstrap: dpkg: error processing passwd (--configure): debootstrap: subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 1 Although running debootstrap on a non-clean target is not preferred, this does seem like an idempotency issue that should be resolved. Note that the failure of the initial base installation step is completely unrelated to passwd: the initial installation of passwd (and the rest of debootstrap) was without problems. -- System Information: Debian Release: lenny/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 2.6.25-rc5 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages passwd depends on: ii debianutils 2.28.4 Miscellaneous utilities specific t ii libc6 2.7-9 GNU C Library: Shared libraries ii libpam-modules 0.99.7.1-6 Pluggable Authentication Modules f ii libpam0g 0.99.7.1-6 Pluggable Authentication Modules l ii libselinux1 2.0.59-1 SELinux shared libraries ii login 1:4.1.0-2 system login tools passwd recommends no packages. -- debconf information: passwd/password-mismatch: passwd/username: fjp passwd/password-empty: passwd/make-user: true passwd/title: passwd/user-uid: passwd/shadow: true passwd/username-bad: passwd/user-fullname: -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
