Hi Baptiste, thanks for the cleanup. It would be nice if you could send a HEADS UP to current@ before such changes. This change rendered my login shell on arm64 useless and it took me about 8 hours on a saturday to get the shell working againg, by using a FreeBSD livesystem, booted on my MacBook, while hurderling with pwd_mkdb(8). --Gordon _______________________________________________ dev-commits-src-all@freebsd.org mailing list https://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/dev-commits-src-all To unsubscribe, send any mail to "dev-commits-src-all-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
