[Pkg-shadow-devel] Bug#168065: Is this really a bug?

[Christian Perrier]

>From the bug submitter:
passwd -e according to the man page forces a user to change their
password at the next login.  This is not the case.  It expires the
password immediately and prevents the user from logging in.


I don't really understand what you mean here.

"passwd -e" can only be issued by root. 

So either the expired user is logged in...and (s)he will continue
his/her session until (s)he logs out...and will then be prevented to
log in

Or (s)he's not log in and (s)he will not be able to log in anymore.

Where's the bug? Or do I miss something?
