Warning: no /bin/su available in rootfs! #206

There was no such error before:

proot-distro install alpine proot-distro login alpine Warning: no /bin/su available in rootfs! localhost:~#

termux 0.117

apk add shadow

apk add shadow

Yes it solved the problem! But why? Was the "shadow" package removed from this version of the distribution? Thanks!

PRoot Distro started to check /bin/su existence since 2.9.0, though this check didn't worked properly if /bin/su was a symlink. This should be fixed in proot-distro package version 2.9.3 and yes, Alpine Linux doesn't have lots of packages preinstalled (that's why it is so small).

Package shadow provides full version of utility.
