But, err..., when there's a syntax error in /etc/group or /etc/passwd file, the whole system can be considered broken, at least partially. Couldn't it? Thus we have a rather legitimate reason to fail in config script, IMHO. Also, IIRC, the action (shadowconfig) you menion here currently is only performed upon `dpkg-reconfigure passwd`, and in -39th release it anyway will additionally be called only on _fresh_ install, when there was no messing with /etc/passwd previously... > A little more error checking would be good. Marc, sorry, could you please explain in more details what you mean here? -- WBR, xrgtn -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
