Hey people, this patch got applied a while ago, which makes /bin/login being provided by the login package and passwd Depend on it. Thus, shadow/passwd/login is broken on Debian GNU/Hurd right now, and consequently postinsts trying to add users (like openssh, hurd) fail and thus installation of Debian GNU/Hurd is impossible right now.
What was the rationale for switching to shadow for login? Just removing /bin/login from the Hurd package is not enough, the login shell will just execute shadow's login binary and fail miserably. Is anybody going to provide a solution for the hurd package in the next couple of days? If not, I will request this to be reverted. thanks, Michael -- Michael Banck Debian Developer [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.advogato.org/person/mbanck/diary.html -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
