I really hope you are not getting that update from the repos anymore … it has been pulled back.

Sorry for the trouble, a new update is on its way in just a bit. It was a stupid mistake in a simple cleanup patch that went a bit too far.

The workaround is to ssh into the machine ("ssh localhost" should do the trick), because then pam_fprintd will not do anything. Also, you can "systemctl mask fprintd.service" to work around it.

Comment 2 Benjamin Berg 2020-12-09 12:34:56 UTC
EDIT: Sorry, it hasn't been pulled from rawhide of course … just F33.

Comment 4 Benjamin Berg 2020-12-11 13:53:10 UTC
Yeah, same bug. One is rawhide the other F33 though, which is why I left them separate.

Comment 5 Mikhail 2020-12-13 21:27:59 UTC
With fprintd 1.90.8-1 the problem was gone.

Comment 6 Ben Cotton 2021-02-09 15:32:51 UTC
This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora 34 development cycle.
Changing version to 34.
