[pkg-fso-maint] install.sh and chpasswd error: No password supplied

[Luca Capello]

Hi there!

Since this morning I am now getting the following new error, even with a
plain install.sh [1]:
=====
 * /etc/network/interfaces copied from this machine
 * /etc/resolv.conf copied from this machine
 * Setting empty root password
No password supplied
No password supplied
No password supplied
chpasswd: (user root) pam_chauthtok() failed, error:
Authentication token manipulation error
chpasswd: (line 1, user root) password not changed
Command exited with non-zero status 1
=====

I do not understand what is going on here and frankly speaking it is a
bug less important than the other I am working on right now, thus I will
delay its debugging to the future.

Thx, bye,
Gismo / Luca
