Thanks for your report. However, you have reached the coreutils mailing list, which has nothing to do with your system password maintenance. You will not find any good answers here. Try your distro support mechanisms, or the distributor of the software you are trying to authenticate. I'm closing this report as it is not a bug in coreutils. --=20 Eric Blake eblake redhat com +1-919-301-3266 Libvirt virtualization library http://libvirt.org --f5RKeKoB13vTqh8Bx8fOB0xolEvBHPRdX Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name="signature.asc" Content-Description: OpenPGP digital signature Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="signature.asc" -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1 Comment: Public key at http://people.redhat.com/eblake/eblake.gpg iQEcBAEBCAAGBQJT4iHQAAoJEKeha0olJ0Nq53UH/AlAsHW0z9XH3n/vRCuNbCtl 0HqXnvHbD7jA+uHCN4mvdqeTgzvvdTsuR9z7rnxxcXr12rLZsbNDY4uMxRivPVL9 ze8eZ5rg1KScL7LoUPfZHI6ys4SwhCTyoQMITqYO+HNeeJXHGqYgRkKEGoEtiPtT sOaDq00CEqevLQ3oeLT6nw4puGQXOtBWTSdTnM/MEXIyPFeC/JcWwicUNzc6GR4j OabuC+b+a+FdHNNNdr1qIIIiZUWH0beoS4miT7Zm0OL/1pEju57nPTex3jlEsz7F a8U9tiAUbfYAUvI0FVQ+UpJj0+TtCsPmdLpKFwXnpmpYjuKZLbjjNb9YXw3VQ9U= =G2Lm -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --f5RKeKoB13vTqh8Bx8fOB0xolEvBHPRdX-- From unknown Sat Sep 06 02:03:41 2025 Received: (at fakecontrol) by fakecontrolmessage; To: internal_control@debbugs.gnu.org From: Debbugs Internal Request Subject: Internal Control Message-Id: bug archived.
