I can confirm that behaviour. The manpage tells us to use tf-tool --add-user though it is patched out. It is supposed to copy the bir-file to /etc/pam_thinkfinger/$USER.bir This is easy to achieve: generate your thinkfinger.bir file with tf-tool --acquire and either hardlink it to /etc/pam_libthinkfinger/ or just leave it there. Because the ubuntu README reads:
> To verify a fingerprint run 'tf-tool --verify'. tf-tool will by default > read a fingerprint image from ~/.thinkfinger.bir and compare that with the > finger which is being swiped. You can override this location by passing > the desired location as parameter. A hint would be nice, that --add-user has been patched out. -- thinkfinger-tools doesn't provide the --add-user switch on amd64 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/203973 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
