I've stumbled upon this while installing postgres. In /etc/nsswitch.conf I had "group: cache files compat" and "passwd: cache files compat". Once I commented them out things started working again. Before the change, this is how it looked like:
-- cut here -- [r...@vgalu /usr/ports/databases/postgresql84-server]# pw group add pgsql -g 70 pw: group disappeared during update [r...@vgalu /usr/ports/databases/postgresql84-server]# pw group add pgsql -g 70 pw: group 'pgsql' already exists [r...@vgalu /usr/ports/databases/postgresql84-server]# -- and here -- Shouldn't 'files' be used upon a cache miss? If this is a PEBKAC, sorry for the noise. _______________________________________________ freebsd-stable@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-stable To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-stable-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
