I have:

$ ll /etc/authselect/nsswitch.conf
ls: cannot access '/etc/authselect/nsswitch.conf': No such file or directory

I just checked, and none of my machines have /etc/nsswitch.conf as a symlink. 
This includes one box that was fresh-installed as F30 (approx).

The fresh-installed box had a bunch of files in /etc/authselect.

The others, just:

[mrsam@monster ~]$ ls -al /etc/authselect/
total 32
drwxr-xr-x.   3 root root  4096 Jul 17 19:30 .
drwxr-xr-x. 212 root root 16384 Jul 17 19:37 ..
drwxr-xr-x.   2 root root  4096 Mar 31 07:36 custom
-rw-r--r--.   1 root root  1783 Jul 17 19:30 user-nsswitch.conf
-rw-r--r--.   1 root root  1783 May 22 09:25 user-nsswitch.conf.bak

All of them have authselect-libs installed.


I must say, none of that makes any sense to me.

I just installed a new VM using Fedora-KDE-Live-x86_64-30-1.2.iso. Even the 
live image has /etc/nsswitch.conf as a sym link
to /etc/authselect/nsswitch.conf

And when I connect with that newly installed VM, without having done any 
updates, I see.

[egreshko@f30k ~]$ ll /etc/nsswitch.conf
lrwxrwxrwx. 1 root root 29 Jul 19 06:25 /etc/nsswitch.conf -> 
/etc/authselect/nsswitch.conf

and

[egreshko@f30k ~]$ ls /etc/authselect/
authselect.conf  dconf-locks       password-auth   system-auth
custom           fingerprint-auth  postlogin user-nsswitch.conf
dconf-db         nsswitch.conf     smartcard-auth

So, it is hard for me to understand how your results could be so different than 
mine unless you've then made changes to your
system out of habit.

Maybe you can double check what version of fedora you actually did install at 
the start?  Assuming the logs haven't been
overgrown you can do "dnf history info 1'.
