[Bug 1890017] Re: package systemd-timesyncd 245.4-4ubuntu3.2 failed to install/upgrade: installed systemd-timesyncd package post-installation script subprocess returned error exit status 1

[Dan Streetman]

Your root password appears to have expired:

Setting up systemd-timesyncd (245.4-4ubuntu3.2) ...
You are required to change your password immediately (administrator enforced)
chfn: PAM: Authentication token is no longer valid; new one required
adduser: `/usr/bin/chfn -f systemd Time Synchronization systemd-timesync' returned error code 1. Exiting.
dpkg: error processing package systemd-timesyncd (--configure):
 installed systemd-timesyncd package post-installation script subprocess returned error exit status 1

If you change the root password and retry the upgrade does it work?

** Changed in: systemd (Ubuntu)
       Status: Confirmed => Incomplete
