Description Justin Sherrill 2007-05-11 14:36:04 UTC 
Description of problem:

If the "encrypted root password" checkbox is checked and then a kickstart is
previewed, unchecking that checkbox cause --iscrypted to be included but the
password is not encrypted.


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):


How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Check "Encrypt root password" 
2. Type a password into the Root Password/Confirm Password boxes
3. Click "File->Preview"
4. Uncheck "encrypt root password"
5. Click "File->Preview"
  
Actual results:

"rootpw  --iscrypted UNENCRYPTED_PASSWORD"
is generated in the kickstart file

Expected results:
"rootpw UNENCRYPTED_PASSWORD"
should be generated in the kicktstart file. 

Additional info:

The variable is simply never set back to False if it is set to true,
included patch that should fix the problem.

release.
Comment 6 Michal Nowak 2008-02-05 16:04:34 UTC 
Now I've read the whole message

   /usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/pirut/GroupSelector.py:331...

and I see that it's mainly pirut's problem. Right?
Comment 7 Chris Lumens 2008-02-05 16:20:39 UTC 
Correct, this would be a problem with the pirut component, which we pull in for
packaging selection.  It's possible I'm not setting something up right in
s-c-kickstart, but I think we get this same message in anaconda so I'm leaning
towards an internal pirut problem.
Comment 8 Michal Nowak 2008-02-05 16:32:44 UTC 
OK, thanks, I reported it piruts's maintainer. 

I guess we can wait come time for his opinion:
