Package: usrmerge
Version: 10
Severity: important
Dear Maintainer,
with usrmerge, some programs - such as pkexec, or LEAP's bitmask on top of that-
fails to run. Specifically, the error I get is:
The value for the SHELL variable was not found the /etc/shells file
and indeed my SHELL variable is set to "/usr/bin/bash", but /etc/shells
contains "/bin/bash". Adding $SHELL to /etc/shells solves the problem.
I would be happy to provide a patch for this if needed, but first: do you
acknowledge that this is a bug of usrmerge? I couldn't find anywhere that lines
of /etc/shells must not be symlinks.
Kind regards,
