Hi, Sorry this has taken so long to get back to. I dont think your change is right. As what you're doing is changing the call to chpasswd to be 'chpasswd <blob-of-stuff>' rather than 'echo "blob-of-stuff" | chpasswd'.
The right chnage I think is to do it like this: - ch_in = '\n'.join(plist_in) + ch_in = '\n'.join(plist_in) + '\n' Could you verify that that works ? Also, if you'd like your name in the commit logs for this, please sign the contributors agreement (http://www.canonical.com/contributors) and re-submit. Thanks for noticing this and submitting a merge proposal. Sorry i didn't see it earlier.
