Description Pino Toscano 2014-09-22 15:50:38 UTC

Description of problem:
Since few weeks (development release 1.27.38), libguestfs uses a copy of the upstream shadow.aug lens to properly edit /etc/shadow, like editing password fields or removing users.
We did that (carrying a copy) because this lens is pretty new ([1][2]), and it is not part of any upstream release.

Thus, it would be nice if the Augeas in RHEL 7.1 could provide a backport of it, which would ease our implementation a bit (especially because libguestds 1.27.x/1.28.x is in RHEL 7.1).

Comment 3 Lingfei Kong 2014-11-10 08:42:12 UTC

Verify with augeas-1.1.0-16.el7

Steps to verify:

1. #find /usr/share/augeas/lenses -name shadow.aug 
/usr/share/augeas/lenses/dist/shadow.aug

2. #augtool print /augeas/files/etc/shadow
/augeas/files/etc/shadow
/augeas/files/etc/shadow/path = "/files/etc/shadow"
/augeas/files/etc/shadow/mtime = "1414466594"
/augeas/files/etc/shadow/lens = "@Shadow"
/augeas/files/etc/shadow/lens/info = "/usr/share/augeas/lenses/dist/shadow.aug:66.17-.40:"

3. #augtool print /files/etc/shadow
/files/etc/shadow
/files/etc/shadow/root
/files/etc/shadow/root/password = "$1$pDj5hfT7$SKwmFsQdYEnyCJ5qKphwE1"
/files/etc/shadow/root/lastchange_date = "16338"
/files/etc/shadow/root/minage_days = "0"
/files/etc/shadow/root/maxage_days = "99999"
/files/etc/shadow/root/warn_days = "7"
/files/etc/shadow/root/inactive_days = ""
/files/etc/shadow/root/expire_date = ""
/files/etc/shadow/root/flag = ""
