4.0.10 was released and new tar balls are avalaible in usual location on:

ftp://ftp.pld.org.pl/software/shadow/

As previouse this verion is mainly bugfix release. Also in this version=20
most of the roff man pageges distributed in tar ball was generated=20
from XML files (this is importand in case submiting any man pages fixes).

My current TODO list for next version:
- SKEY support back,
- add auditing support,
- su: GNU su compliant options,
- rewrite more tools for use getopt_long(),
- more work on XML documentation.

*** general:
- mkpasswd: removed,
- userdel: now deletes user groups from /etc/gshdow as well as /etc/group.
  Fix by Nicolas Fran=C3=A7ois <nicolas.francois@centraliens.net>.
  http://bugs.debian.org/99442
- usermod: when relocating a user's home directory, don't fail and remove t=
he new
  home directory if we can't remove the old home directory for some
  reason; the results can be spectularly poort if, for instance, only
  the rmdir() fails. Patch prepared by Timo Lindfors <lindi-spamtrap@newmai=
l.com>.
  http://bugs.debian.org/166369
- su: fix syslogs to be less ambiguous. Use old:new format instead of old-n=
ew
  because '-' can appear in usernames
  http://bugs.debian.org/213592
- removed not used now libmisc/setup.c,
- login: use also UTMPX API instead UTMP on failure (login was affected for=
 this
  when shadow was builded without PAM support)
  patch by Nicolas Fran=C3=A7ois <nicolas.francois@centraliens.net>
- login: the PAM session needs to be closed as root, thus before change_uid=
()

bian.org/211884
- login: made login's -f option also able to use the username after -- if n=
one
  was passed as it's optarg
  http://bugs.debian.org/53702
- login: check for hushed login and pass PAM_SILENT if true,
  http://bugs.debian.org/48002
- login: fixed username on succesful login (was using the normal username,
  when it should have used pam_user) http://bugs.debian.org/47819
- remove using SHADOWPWD #define so now shadow is allways builded with shad=
ow
  passwowd support,
- chage: rewrite for use getopt_long(),
- updated translations: ca, cs, da, fi, pl, ru, zh_TW.
