retitle 143286 [TO CLOSE 20050405] passwd-usermod: usermod causes packet =
installation failures in NIS environments
thanks

The bug says:

Package: passwd
Version: 20000902-12
Severity: normal

usermod causes packet installation failures in NIS environments
due to just failing when a non-local (ie NIS) password entry
is supposed to be modified.

This causes other packages to be uninstallable, for example mysql-server.



I'm afraid that we're far from having enough information to even
understand what is really being reported.


Do you have any other details you can gie about this bug or is it so
old that you can't even remember what it was about?

Sorry for coming so lat=A0: the shadow package, to which the passwd
package belongs to, has been neglected for a while and we're currently
in the process of cleaning out its bug log....

With no further details, I will close this bug report soon.
