2008-08-05 13:27:42 < panthera> waldi: chpasswd from busybox is broken
in lenny/sid when setting the
rootpassword
2008-08-05 13:28:21 < panthera> it hangs when setting it, and destroys
the shadow file (found out by
codehelp)
2008-08-05 13:28:40 < panthera> but it is fixed in current svn. although
this is not used directly in
d-i,
2008-08-05 13:28:59 < panthera> would you consider fixing it by
backporting the patch?
2008-08-05 13:29:09 < panthera> or is it a no-go because of d-i?
2008-08-05 13:29:41 < Lunar^> panthera: sounds like an RC bug to me
2008-08-05 13:29:55 < otavio> panthera: I ack with Lunar^ on that
2008-08-05 13:30:08 < otavio> panthera: agree, sorry
2008-08-05 13:31:04 < otavio> Lunar^: do you still have anything to
push? Please do
2008-08-05 13:31:50 < panthera> Lunar^, otavio: ok, will ask codehelp to
issue the bug report then.
