[Bug 1072545] Re: package passwd 1:4.1.4.2+svn3283-3ubuntu5.1 failed to install/upgrade: subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 1

 

The error in your log was:

/var/lib/dpkg/info/passwd.postinst: line 19: /usr/local/bin/getent: No
such file or directory

This indicates that you had a locally-installed 'getent' command under
/usr/local/bin on your system that conflicted with the system 'getent'
command.  This is not a bug in Ubuntu.

** Changed in: shadow (Ubuntu)
       Status: New => Invalid
