Hi, all...

I'm experiencing a curious problem with one of my gentoo boxes...

I want to add an additional user, but I can't seem to be able to set a password. This is what I seem to get:
Code:

 # useradd -m -s /bin/bash newuser
 # passwd newuser
New UNIX password: newpassword
/usr/lib/cracklib.dict.pwd: No such file or directory
PWOpen: No such file or directory
 #


Does anyone know how I can account for this problem?

Thanks!

hello,

Review installation by "revdep-rebuild" utility first

Probably a last update can break some dependency

Good suggestion, but nothing found:
Code:

# revdep-rebuild _p
Configuring search environment for revdep-rebuild

Checking reverse dependencies...

Packages containing binaries and libraries broken by a package update
will be emerged.

Collecting system binaries and libraries... done.
  (/root/.revdep-rebuild.1_files)

Collecting complete LD_LIBRARY_PATH... done.
  (/root/.revdep-rebuild.2_ldpath)

Checking dynamic linking consistency...
 done.
  (/root/.revdep-rebuild.3_rebuild)

Assigning files to ebuilds... Nothing to rebuild

Evaluating package order... done.
  (/root/.revdep-rebuild.5_order)

Dynamic linking on your system is consistent... All done.


Any other thoughts? :?

Edit: Solved in another thread by trizz :)

Thanks!
