Thanks, that will be fixed.

Will do.

the built-in m_mkpasswd contrib module has been removed upstream.

This works for me. For example:

$ /usr/bin/mkpasswd
Password: [asdfasdf]
hxd5KFgDHk3NQ

operator {
        name = "Dom";
        user = "d...@i.love.debian.org";
        password = "hxd5KFgDHk3NQ";
        encrypted = "yes";
        class = "opers";
};

Can you check this?

That's odd; it matches the syntax in the example file. I'll check upstream
about that.
