I talked to Guy (login maintainer) about this problem a while ago and treid to persuade him to use ths shadow login as standard (it works without the shadow file, too). But he prefers to keep the old one. Should we create a second login package? Also should we try to package the shadow su, too (and divert teh shellutils one)? I'm going to changes jobs next month and I'd really like to finish my work on this problem until then. I don't know if I will have the time in my new job.
