I can repeat this bad backup indefinitely:
1) check current nsswitch has no such lines
2) run authselect select --force ...
3) backup at /usr/lib/authselect/backup/<timestamp>/nsswitch has the
appended lines
Have observed a similar corruption (with explicitly named backup, but
it's likely of no significance) yesterday with Rawhide, but at that time
it was least of my problems (see dbus-broker [vs. systemd-nspawn] in
a slightly older thread, nsswitch.conf/pam was actually a false start
based on some messages in journal I thought might be related).
Buffer handling bug?
