Title:
As of today in hirsute no longer possible to use open-fprintd
Status in fprintd package in Ubuntu:
Won't Fix
Bug description:
It appears that fprintd-clients was replaced with libpam-fprintd, and
libpam-fprintd can't be installed without fprintd.
I can't use fprintd because it's incompatible with my fingerprint
reader (Lenovo Thinkpad X1 Carbon 6th gen). Prior to today I was
successfully using open-fprintd.
Now, however, I had to uninstall open-fprintd and install libpam-
fprintd to be able to log in (see bug 1917175), and I am unable to put
open-fprintd back because that will force fprintd to uninstall, which
will force libpam-fprintd to uninstall, which will make me unable to
log in because pam_fprintd.so will disappear.
This isn't great.
