            Bug ID: 10896
           Summary: /bin/sh not in /etc/shells
           Product: buildroot
           Version: 2018.02
          Hardware: All
                OS: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: major
          Priority: P5
         Component: Other
          Assignee: unassigned at buildroot.uclibc.org
          Reporter: posted at heine.so
                CC: buildroot at uclibc.org
  Target Milestone: ---

Hi,

I just updated my buildroot build from 2017.11 to 2018.02. 
It broke my root ssh login.

I see the following message in my journal: 

  dropbear[383]: User 'root' has invalid shell, rejected

In 2017.11 there was no /etc/shells. Now there is one.
My /etc/shells contains only /bin/bash. But not /bin/sh. But my root users has
/bin/sh as shell, so the error makes sense.

Some quick comparison shows that the file /etc/shells was added in this commit:

4d279697afbf8fb2952 package/bash: add /bin/bash to /etc/shells

I see on the mailing list Romain Naour posted a series of commits which would
also add /bin/sh to shells in the skeleton-init-common. But this is still not
applied.

So I would suggest to either apply the patch series for the next maintenance
release or remove the before mentioned commit.


Regards,
Michael

Still present in 2018.02.1...

For 2018.02.x, I think it should be fixed by reverting the commit:
http://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/899178/

For master, the series should be applied:
http://patchwork.ozlabs.org/project/buildroot/list/?series=24357

--- Comment #2 from Thomas Petazzoni <thomas.petazzoni@free-electrons.com> ---
In the 2018.02.x branch, we reverted the patch pointed by Arnout. For the
master branch, and upcoming 2018.05, we also applied the series pointed by
Arnout. Hence this bug is fixed. Thanks!
