Public bug reported: Binary package hint: adduser
I cannot set a password for a newly created user using adduser. Step to produce is to type adduser test. Then I get: Adding user `test' ... Adding new group `test' (1001) ... Adding new user `test' (1001) with group `test' ... Creating home directory `/home/test' ... Copying files from `/etc/skel' ... passwd: System error passwd: password unchanged Try again?
