dCore Import Debian Packages to Mountable SCE extensions > dCore X86

passwd (not) updated successfully

<< < (3/6) > >>

hiro:
yeah, all those graphical apps that people use are probably fine as long as the base works.
I like not having to force all this software to fit into tinycorelinux package repos, seems like duplicated effort especially when every package anyways depends on every other package (not distribution-specific, but typical for big programs)

it does freak me out though that a basic program like openssh gets all those dependencies by default in debian. dcore showcases that fact quite well. so perhaps it's helpful in rising awareness :P

can you tell me what you saw/fixed?
I rebooted my server now but i still have the old problem.
Should running sce-update before rebooting have been enough?

Jason W:
I moved to using busybox passwd.

What is the output of the command -

which passwd

hiro:
$ ls -l `which passwd`
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 41 Sep 22 22:26 /usr/bin/passwd -> /tmp/tcloop/openssh-server/usr/bin/passwd

also, even more concerning:

$ ls -l `which su`
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 33 Sep 22 22:26 /bin/su -> /tmp/tcloop/openssh-server/bin/su


Can you explain what's technically happening here? Why is the debian su failing to protect us in any way and doesn't ask for a password?

hiro:
I also noticed that when I do sce-update -a I keep on getting an update of
    libgnutls-deb0-28        debian jessie main

It results in this to be downloaded every time over again:
