Comment 3 Karl-Olov Serrander 2009-01-12 11:21:58 UTC

I have the same problem with a nisclient on Fedora 10. Error message: Preparing...                ########################################### [100%]
error: %pre(rpcbind-0.1.7-1.fc10.x86_64) scriptlet failed, exit status 9
error:   install: %pre scriptlet failed (2), skipping rpcbind-0.1.7-1.fc10
Problem seems to be "/usr/sbin/userdel  rpc" in  %pre.
Changing /etc/nsswitch.conf: "passwd: files nis" to "passwd: files" makes %pre work, but that is not optimal if you have many nisclients to update.

Comment 4 Kasper Dupont 2009-02-02 07:19:53 UTC

I experienced the same problem when running "yum update". Updating rpcbind failed with a script error. The userdel command was failing to delete the rpc user because there were two lines in /etc/shadow with the user name "rpc". On closer look I found that there were two copies of every user. The file had 70 lines, the first 35 were identical to the last 35. Removing the last 35 lines solved the problem.

userdel could be made a bit more resilient to this, but the real bug is that the contents of /etc/shadow were duplicated to begin with. I am not sure what produced the bad /etc/shadow. I suspect it was something happening earlier during the update.
