Oh wow, that's indeed badly broken, and will need fixing before the next
release. Reproduced locally with a 'û' in my last name:
Mar 24 19:17:59 finish-install: info: Running /usr/lib/finish-install.d/06user-setup
Mar 24 19:17:59 user-setup: Shadow passwords are now on.
Mar 24 20:17:59 chpasswd[8387]: pam_unix(chpasswd:chauthtok): password changed for root
Mar 24 19:17:59 user-setup: invalid characters in Cyril Br\x{fffd}\x{fffd}lebois at /usr/share/perl5/Debian/AdduserCommon.pm line 141.
Mar 24 20:17:59 chpasswd[8399]: pam_unix(chpasswd:chauthtok): user "cyril" does not exist in /etc/passwd
Mar 24 19:17:59 finish-install: chpasswd: (user cyril) pam_chauthtok() failed, error:
Mar 24 19:17:59 finish-install: Authentication token manipulation error
Mar 24 19:17:59 finish-install: chpasswd: (line 1, user cyril) password not changed
Mar 24 19:17:59 finish-install: warning: /usr/lib/finish-install.d/06user-setup returned error code 1
No feedback during the installation process, just silent failure to
create the user. :(
Looping in adduser people for awareness and maybe tips. A quick look at
adduser.git suggests sanitation got added end 2024/beginning 2025…
Cheers,
