Bug#204682: glibc: su - segfaults, loggin in as root also fails. sudo works

2003-08-09 Thread thunder7
Package: glibc
Version: N/A
Severity: grave

After updating to the latest glibc this morning as per apt-get upgrade,
I now get a segfault on running su -.
Logging in as root directly also fails, it asks for name/password then 
repeats that.

It worked until this morning, all I updated was python, debhelper, glibc,
libart-lgpl, libxml2, python-apt and ucf.

On trying to strace su, it always gives 'authentication failure'. Without
strace, it gives a segmentation fault. This may be an interaction between
glibc and the 2.6 kernel, but I've observed it on 2.6.0-test2 and 2.6.0-test3
both.
