output of "strace useradd kde"
rpm -V shadow-utils is empty After comparing my trace with the trace of a successful useradd on another RH9 box, I conjectured that useradd was incompatible with libsafe. And indeed, after unsetting LD_PRELOAD, useradd no longer segfaults. But presumably there is unsafe code in useradd, which is somewhat worrisome. Sounds like a dup of bug #89145 (which has a patch) Changed to 'CLOSED' state since 'RESOLVED' has been deprecated. |
Description of problem: useradd (without -D) segfaults Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): shadow-utils-4.0.3-6 How reproducible: Every time, and on two separate RH 9 boxes Steps to Reproduce: 1.useradd anything 2. 3. Actual results: Segmentation fault (core dumped) Expected results: new user Additional info: strace to be attached
