Since yesterday we are seeing error messages like this: 23:48:42,466 CRIT groupadd:shadow: unknown configuration item 'PASS_CHANGE_TRIES' in '/etc/login.defs' 23:48:42,466 CRIT groupadd:shadow: unknown configuration item 'PASS_ALWAYS_WARN' in '/etc/login.defs' 23:48:42,466 CRIT groupadd:shadow: unknown configuration item 'HMAC_CRYPTO_ALGO' in '/etc/login.defs' making our installer functional kickstart tests failing. For more details see https://github.com/rhinstaller/kickstart-tests/issues/1061 Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.Run installation with rawhide boot.iso (https://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/fedora/linux/development/rawhide/Everything/x86_64/os/images/boot.iso) 2.At the end of the installation look at the journal log in a terminal or at the /var/log/anaconda/journal.log on the installed system. Actual Results: CRIT error messages in the log Expected Results: No error messages in the log The issue started to appear with this change in the shadow-utils version: 733,734c733,734 < shadow-utils-2:4.14.0-6.fc40.x86_64 < shadow-utils-subid-2:4.14.0-6.fc40.x86_64 --- > shadow-utils-2:4.15.0rc2-1.fc41.x86_64 > shadow-utils-subid-2:4.15.0rc2-1.fc41.x86_64 The installation seems to finish successfully in spite of the messages, not sure if the installed system has any issues related to the messages. We need more a guidance about what to do with the tests now: are the messages going to disappear, should we ignore it, ...? Thank you
You can ignore these messages. Due to https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/LibuserDeprecation several configuration flags were changed and some unintended effects are happening. I will try to remove the messages, but that's going to take some time because the code complex in this area.
Thank you, works for me, we updated our tests to ignore the messages for now.
