Package: passwd Version: 4.0.3-33 Severity: critical Tags: sid Justification: Breaks unrelated software (exim4 plus others)
Hi, Between -32 and -33, a chunk of code from libmisc/chkname.c:good_name() was moved in to 406_good_name.dpatch. Unfortunately, that file is currently commented out in debian/patches/00list, and the patch is therefore not applied. This leads to an inability to install exim4, as the user/group name "Debian-exim4" does not match upstream's regex ([a-z_][a-z0-9_-]*). For example: Adding system-user for exim (v4) groupadd: Debian-exim is a not a valid group name groupdel: group Debian-exim does not exist dpkg: error processing exim4-config (--configure): subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 1 Regards, Adam -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
