That shouldn't be happening. > I did edit /etc/nsswitch.conf manually, because obviously I needed a working system :) The confusing part here is that the error message claims that **/etc/authselect/nsswitch.conf** has unexpected content. So this doesn't seem to be related to /etc/nsswitch.conf having been edited by hand. Is it? If it is, what is the proper way to revert back to upstream defaults in this case? Should I append "--force" to the command? (I don't want to destroy my system, that's why I'm not simply trying it. All of this seems awfully complex and fragile).
