Description George Mitchell 2013-05-06 00:52:02 CEST

Description of problem:

The vdr package creates a user entry in /etc/passwd with the shell designated as /bin/nologin.  I *believe* that should be instead /sbin/nologin?

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):


How reproducible:

[root@localhost ghmitch]# egrep vdr /etc/passwd
vdr:x:487:479:system user for vdr:/var/lib/vdr:/bin/nologin

[root@localhost ghmitch]# ls -l /bin/nologin
ls: cannot access /bin/nologin: No such file or directory
[root@localhost ghmitch]# ls -l /sbin/nologin
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 6484 Apr 25 10:36 /sbin/nologin*

Steps to Reproduce:
1.
2.
3.
