Sigh, authselect is even more complicated than I thought. I can't simply do
"sudo authselect apply-changes --force". I need to do "sudo authselect
select $something --force" first, according to the man page. And I have no
idea what $something is. Can you please provide an exact set of commands to
run? Thanks.
