This looks like a duplicate of #353813 (http://bugs.debian.org/353813) > I see this problem both in version 4.0.14-4 (etch) and 4.0.14-7 (sid). Are you sure the bug is present in 4.0.14-7? (#353813 was closed in -7 according to the changelog) Anyway, I will add the x, because it fails with ash otherwise. Your patch also makes root_password to return 0 when the /etc/passwd passwd is set to ! (and it does not check if the /etc/shadow passwd is set to !). What is it used for?
