Which is fairly logical as login is a binary provided in login..:-)

So, sorry to say this, but manpages-de should stop providing login.1
which is anyway certainly completely outdated.

We will have to recompile a new version of shadow, conflicting with
all versions of manpages-de (we already had a "Replaces" on
manpages-de ((<= 0.4-4)).

Sigh...
