[Pkg-shadow-devel] passwd behavior

[Tomasz Kłoczko]

Comment to Debian bug #352137 (http://bugs.debian.org/bug=352137)

I think attached patch for this BR is incorrect.
Why ? Because looks like current passwd behavior on signals handling is
incorrect. I was looking on some other passwd implementations and seems
only shadow passwd blocades SIGINT (Ctrl-C). I don't see any real
reasons for doing this (security or other).
If passwd can be interrupted by Ctrl-C behavior described in above BR
will not occure.
And/or if blocade now SIGING is neccessary probably also must be added
handling SIGABRT (Ctrl-\).

Comments ?
