I see. Well, with the dawn of a new day comes the partial parting of clouds. Except
those belonging to the
typhoon heading our way.
May I suggest a possible fix for the situation to get your system in the
"expected" configuration?
Save whatever files are currently in you /etc/authselect directory.
Replace all of the file in that directory with these.
https://drive.google.com/file/d/19ZzXlr7OebZegM27rMWqXBq9TpsRw89g/view?us...
Make /etc/nsswitch.conf a sym link to /etc/authselect/nsswitch.conf
Then run "sudo authselect apply-changes". And you should see....
[egreshko@f34x ~]$ sudo authselect apply-changes
Changes were successfully applied
And you should see the timestamps on most of the files /etc/authselect change to the time
the command
was run.
Then, edit /etc/authselect/user-nsswitch.conf with some changes to test and run the
"authselect apply-changes"
and confirm that /etc/nsswitch.conf has those changes.
If all that goes well, then the next tme glibc is updated your changes should not be
lost.
This looks like a big hammer to me. I will consider doing this on a copy of my f34 VM at
some point.
I will need clearer evidence for what the correct setup is. Note the response from Sam
Varshavchik
suggesting their fresh fc30 install has a setup similar to mine.
I should probably install (on a VM)
Fedora-Xfce-Live-x86_64-34-1.2.iso
to see what I get.
