The above email was sent to bug-grep where it created a new bug report 
24462 for 'grep'. I assume this was a typo and that it was meant to be 
sent to bug-bash, and so am closing Bug#24462.

If you no longer have control of your system, and you can't boot it into
single-user without a password, and you can't restore from backups, you
need to boot from rescue media and try to reset the root password that way.
