2006-01-03 Thread Colin Watson
changes to which, in my experience, a sizeable fraction of trn users have negative reactions (although I happen to like them personally). trn users are generally attached to trn because of its UI, and for those who don't like trn4 there's really no replacement available. Cheers, -- Colin Watson

back in 3.71. The disabled password option used to be --disabled-password, not --disabled-passwd. passwd.config expects --disabled-password (and adduser(8) still documents it), and as a result this change breaks new installations. Please rename it back to --disabled-password. Thanks, -- Colin
