Hi,

in login.defs(5) there is a nice cross reference which programs in the shadow
password suite use which parameters. I have checked the manpages of the
different programes for missing references. Especially the missing references
in FILES and SEE ALSO sections are annoying.

chfn(1):     login.defs(5) [missing]; /etc/login.defs [ok]; CHFN_AUTH CHFN_RESTRICT [missing]
 
chsh(1):     login.defs(5) [missing]; /etc/login.defs [missing]; CHFN_AUTH [missing]

groupadd(8): login.defs(5) [missing]; /etc/login.defs [missing]; GID_MAX GID_MIN [missing]

newusers(8): login.defs(5) [missing]; /etc/login.defs [missing]; PASS_MAX_DAYS [missing]; PASS_MIN_DAYS [missing]; PASS_WARN_AGE UMASK [missing]

       Document the order for checking the password strength
       Closes: #115380
   * Debian packaging fixes:
     - debian/login.su.pam:
       - pam_wheel example moved after pam_rootok in config.
         Also documents that with 'pam_wheel.so group=foo', root may need to
         be in the foo group. Closes: #330630, #330855
       - pam_env turned to be used as a session module which it is designed
         to be. Thanks to Steinar H. Gunderson who pointed this out and
         Steve Langasek and Andrew Suffield who suggested the right solution.
     - debian/control:
       - manpages-es-extra: versioned Replaces as the man pages have now been
                            removed
       - manpages-de:       versioned Replaces as the man pages have now been

       - pack login.defs and its manpages into "passwd" instead of "login"
         package for the Hurd platform. Closes: #249372
       - copy upstream's changelog. Closes: #331487
     - debian/passwd.config, debian/passwd.templates:
       - allow preseeding the root (and user) password with a MD5 hash
         Closes: #275343, #304352
         Thanks to Colin Watson for the Ubuntu patch
       - the above also allows preseeding a disabled password for root
         Closes: #304343
       - add passwd/user-uid template, which can be preseeded to force the
         initial user to have a certain uid.
         Thanks to Colin Watson for the Ubuntu patch
       - allow hyphens in username
         Thanks to Colin Watson for the Ubuntu patch (Ubuntu #15721)
     - debian/login.defs:
       - document the obsoleted by PAM ENV_HZ variable. Closes: #265613

     - debian/add-shell, debian/remove-shell, debian/add-shell.8,
       debian/remove-shell.8:
       - utilities moved to debianutils. Add a versioned "Depends" line on
         debianutils so that passwd cannot be upgraded when the new
         debianutils version including these utilities isn't available
         Closes: #208514, #268656, #269573, #293171
   * Debconf translation updates:
     - Swedish updated. Closes: #332711
