Dear Debian boot,
It is now possible to set up Debian system without a root password.
On such system sudo must be used instead of su.
What is the canonical way to detect such situation ?
My purpose is to change su-to-root to automatically default to sudo mode
on such system.
I would use:
passwd --status root
And look if it is expired, locked, or with an invalid password (RTFM
to interpret the output)
