Hi,
Until recently, I used the avahi-daemon package (and a few others) from the oakcourt repo.
Recently, an updated package has become available from the maemo.org repository (0.6.20-2indt1) but it will not install properly. I've even reflashed my n800, but to no avail.
Attempting to install with apt-get yields:
Setting up avahi-daemon (0.6.20-2indt1) ...
chage: can't open shadow password fileStopped: `/usr/bin/chage -M 99999 avahi' returned error code 1. Exiting.
Removing user `avahi' ...
Removing group `avahi' ...
dpkg: error processing avahi-daemon (--configure):
subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 1
dpkg: dependency problems prevent configuration of avahi-utils:
avahi-utils depends on avahi-daemon; however:
Package avahi-daemon is not configured yet.
dpkg: error processing avahi-utils (--configure):
dependency problems - leaving unconfigured
Errors were encountered while processing:
avahi-daemon
avahi-utils
E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)

Any idea what's wrong? Do others see this problem? I need to get avahi-daemon installed again.
