[Pkg-shadow-devel] Bug#345659: passwd: Removes /etc/shells on purge.

[Kurt Roeckx]

Package: passwd
Version: 1:4.0.13-1
Severity: serious

Hi,

Handling of /etc/shells was moved to debianutils, but you still
remove /etc/shells on purge.  Since passwd can be removed without
much problems, this can leave a system without /etc/shells.  And
this causes problems.

You should no longer remove that file on purge.
