ansible/changelogs/fragments/17029-prevent-user-fact-lookup-failure-is-logname-is-set.yml

bugfixes:
  - Lookup user by UID in password database if login name is not found (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/17029)
user - Prevent user fact lookup failure if LOGNAME is set (#17029) (#73439) The `UserFactCollector` queries the user login name via `getpass.getuser()` and looks up the corresponding entry in the password database. The login name may differ from the actual user name, eg. if the `LOGNAME` env variable is set. The lookup fails in this case. Added a fallback in this case that tries to get the entry via the user ID. 2021-02-02 16:36:02 +01:00			`bugfixes:`
