Fedora Update Notification
FEDORA-2020-cf99202fdc
2020-12-10 01:13:07.368473
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Name : authselect
Product : Fedora 33
Version : 1.2.2
Release : 1.fc33
URL :
https://github.com/authselect/authselect
Summary : Configures authentication and identity sources from supported profiles
Description :
Authselect is designed to be a replacement for authconfig but it takes
a different approach to configure the system. Instead of letting
the administrator build the PAM stack with a tool (which may potentially
end up with a broken configuration), it would ship several tested stacks
(profiles) that solve a use-case and are well tested and supported.
At the same time, some obsolete features of authconfig are not
supported by authselect.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Update Information:
Rebased to latest upstream release. Release notes:
https://github.com/authselect/authselect/releases/tag/1.2.2 **Please test:**
Major packaging change - All generated files are now owned by authselect and if
authselect package is uninstalled, the /etc/authselect/nsswitch.conf and
/etc/authselect/*-auth files are copied to their system location
(/etc/nsswitch.conf, /etc/pam.d/-auth) and the whole directory /etc/authselect
is removed.
