Package: adduser
Version: 3.154
Severity: minor
chpasswd from shadow 4.19.0 does validity checks for the hash that is
passed to it (#1124835). This breaks some adduser tess, for example this
one from adduser_system.t:
system('echo "aust:!foobar" | chpasswd --encrypted');↲
ok(1, "set passwd to !foobar");↲
assert_command_result_silent(RET_WRONG_OBJECT_PROPERTIES,↲
'/usr/sbin/adduser',↲
'--stdoutmsglevel=error', '--stderrmsglevel=error',↲
'--system',↲
'--disabled-login',↲
'aust'↲
);↲
assert_user_exists('aust');↲
assert_user_is_system('aust');↲
For the time being, I have disabled this test in adduser.
We shold make up our minds whether we would want to poke the invalid
hash into /etc/shadow or whether we shrug it away and delete the test
for good.
Greetings
