I'm not sure which is correct: the current implementation of user-setup /allow-password-empty is very clean, and possibly useful. I don't think it's the right long-term solution for MID, and I agree with the point of view that it's probably unsafe to really have no password on an installed system, and better to use an automatic-login facility (as even a well-known default password is less likely to get hit by an automated scan than a blank password).
That said, it seems to me that it would make sense to be consistent across our tools, and if we did want to preserve user-setup/allow- password-empty, use it also in other places where we wish to have this sort of password (e.g. casper), although I believe it to be late enough in the Jaunty cycle this is unwarranted. -- Ubuntu MID preseed uses experimental preseed value https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/347207 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
