[Pkg-shadow-devel] Bug#353994: login: configuration error - unknown item 'FAIL_DELAY' (notify administrator)

[Leszek Koltunski]

Package: login
Version: 1:4.0.14-6
Severity: important

after upgrade to 1:4.0.14-6 when issuing 'su' command I get

leszek at angband:~$ su
Password:
configuration error - unknown item 'FAIL_DELAY' (notify administrator)
angband:/home/leszek# 

The command succeeds, but obviously something is fishy. Architecture: AMD64
