[Pkg-shadow-devel] Bug#380645: usermod -a option is broken

Package: passwd
Version: 4.0.17-2

Any attempt to use the -a option to usermod as documented seems to result 
in the program displaying a usage message.  Clint reports that there seems 
to be a superfluous colon in the source, as adding a bogus option to -a makes 
it work, like:

	usermod -a bogusvalue -G cdrom backup
