Ahh, there is a bug in the trigger script:
%triggerin -- util-linux
if [ ! -f /bin/login.orig -a ! -L /bin/login ]; then
mv -f /bin/login /bin/login.orig
ln -s /bin/athena/login /bin/login
fi
Clearly this will only run if there isn't a /bin/login.orig. This should
probably be changed to be:
%triggerin -- util-linux
if [ ! -L /bin/login ]; then
mv -f /bin/login /bin/login.orig
ln -s /bin/athena/login /bin/login
fi
I have _NOT_ changed the package-lists file, nor have I rebuilt
any packages. Can someone on linux-dev please audit my suggested
change?
