><i> 'Twas brillig, and Colin Guthrie at 12/07/12 15:42 did gyre and gimble:
</I>>><i> Hi
</I>>><i>
</I>>><i> I know pretty much nothing about TCB authentication stuff that was
</I>>><i> initially spearheaded by Vincent Danen many years ago in the Mandriva
</I>>><i> days (taking work from his Anvix project IIRC)
</I>>><i>
</I>>><i> Our shadow-utils package (basically no different to Mandriva's) had one
</I>>><i> large patch relating to TCB that I've now dropped as upstream
</I>>><i> shadow-utils now has it's own TCB support.
</I>>><i>
</I>>><i> It required a couple build fixes (nothing too crazy) and things seem to
</I>>><i> work still for me.
</I>>><i>
</I>>><i> I've also dropped a few binaries we do not use or are provided by other
</I>>><i> packages (sometimes in different paths e.g. /bin/login vs. /usr/bin/login).
</I>>><i>
</I>>><i> Everything still seems to work for me. I can login, create users, su to
</I>>><i> other users etc. etc (although only the creation of users actually uses
</I>>><i> the stuff in this package and I didn't know how to provide an encrypted
</I>>><i> password when testing that, so not sure if my tests are even vaguely valid!)
</I>>><i>
</I>>><i> Please test before I release it on the rest of Cauldron.
</I>>><i>
</I>>><i> Anyone who has any specific knowledge of this package I would very much
</I>>><i> appreciate a review.
</I>>><i> <A HREF="http://svnweb.mageia.org/packages/cauldron/shadow-utils/current/">http://svnweb.mageia.org/packages/cauldron/shadow-utils/current/</A>
</I>><i>
</I>><i> Has anyone checked this other than me yet?
</I>><i>
</I>><i> I'd like to push this but would like at least some other confirmation
</I>><i> that it doesn't break things :D
</I>
OK, I asked twice, now you're all getting it!
Pushed to cauldron proper now :p
(I'm sure it'll be fine :D)
