Hello! I emerge shadow today with sys-apps/shadow-4.0.5-r2 -debug +nls -pam (-selinux) -skey This is the first time I have a PAM-free Gentoo box. pam and pam-login are removed from the system. I played around with user accounts and tried to give them passwords. This is what happened: blood root # passwd sk
Hello! I emerge shadow today with sys-apps/shadow-4.0.5-r2 -debug +nls -pam (-selinux) -skey This is the first time I have a PAM-free Gentoo box. pam and pam-login are removed from the system. I played around with user accounts and tried to give them passwords. This is what happened: blood root # passwd sk Ändere Kennwort für sk Geben Sie das neue Kennwort ein (mindestens 5, höchstens 127 Zeichen) Bitte benutzen Sie eine Kombination von Groß-/Kleinbuchstaben und Ziffern. Neues Kennwort: /usr/lib.pwd: Datei oder Verzeichnis nicht gefunden PWOpen: Nicht erlaubter Seek blood root # I google a bit and found out that I needed to change the following in /etc/login.defs in order to get passwd to work again: CRACKLIB_DICTPATH /usr/lib to CRACKLIB_DICTPATH /usr/lib/cracklib_dict Now passwd works again (without PAM). Maybe you guys can just change patch that changes CRACKLIB_DICTPATH. I'll attach a patch. Thanks all! Sebastian Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. unmerge pam and pam-login 2. set -pam in make.conf 3. emerge shadow 4. start passwd and give a long password with different characters Actual Results: passwd can't find the cracklib dictionary Expected Results: Well :) passwd works Portage 2.0.51-r3 (default-linux/x86/2004.3, gcc-3.3.4, glibc-2.3.4.20040808-r1, 2.6.9 i686) ================================================================= System uname: 2.6.9 i686 Intel(R) Pentium(R) M processor 1400MHz Gentoo Base System version 1.4.16 distcc 2.16 i686-pc-linux-gnu (protocols 1 and 2) (default port 3632) [enabled] ccache version 2.3 [enabled] Autoconf: sys-devel/autoconf-2.59-r5 Automake: sys-devel/automake-1.8.5-r1 Binutils: sys-devel/binutils-2.15.90.0.1.1-r3 Headers: sys-kernel/linux26-headers-2.6.8.1 Libtools: sys-devel/libtool-1.5.2-r7 ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="x86" AUTOCLEAN="yes" CFLAGS="-O2 -march=pentium3 -msse2 -fomit-frame-pointer -pipe" CHOST="i686-pc-linux-gnu" COMPILER="" CONFIG_PROTECT="/etc /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/xkb /usr/kde/2/share/config /usr/kde/3/share/config /usr/lib/mozilla/defaults/pref /usr/share/config /usr/share/texmf/dvipdfm/config/ /usr/share/texmf/dvips/config/ /usr/share/texmf/tex/generic/config/ /usr/share/texmf/tex/platex/config/ /usr/share/texmf/xdvi/ /var/qmail/control"CONFIG_PROTECT_MASK="/etc/gconf /etc/terminfo /etc/env.d" CXXFLAGS="-O2 -march=pentium3 -msse2 -fomit-frame-pointer -pipe" DISTDIR="/mnt/distfiles" FEATURES="autoaddcvs autoconfig ccache distcc distlocks sandbox sfperms" GENTOO_MIRRORS="ftp://sunsite.informatik.rwth-aachen.de/pub/Linux/gentoo" MAKEOPTS="-j5" PKGDIR="/usr/portage/packages" PORTAGE_TMPDIR="/var/tmp" PORTDIR="/usr/portage" PORTDIR_OVERLAY="" SYNC="rsync://rsync.informatik.rwth-aachen.de/gentoo-portage" USE="X alsa bitmap-fonts crypt cups dvd foomaticdb gnome gtk gtk2 hal ithreads jpeg mad mmx moznocompose moznoirc ncurses nls oggvorbis png ppds readline rtc spell sse sse2 ssl tetex truetype x86 xprint xv zlib" Failed to write to mtimedb: [Errno 13] Permission denied: '/var/cache/edb/mtimedb'
Ho again! Sorry, can't attach a patch. I refuse to patch a patch :) You'll find the file at /usr/portage/sys-apps/shadow/files/shadow-4.0.5-login.defs.patch. S.
