Package: passwd
Version: 1:4.8.1-1
Severity: wishlist

Hi,

It'd be nice if the passwd(1) and passwd(5) man pages mentioned the
"Users and Groups in the Debian System" document in the SEE ALSO
section of their man pages.  The document describes the users and
groups which come with the system.

Perhaps a file URL would be best:

file:///usr/share/doc/base-passwd/users-and-groups.html

(The file is in base-passwd, which is Priority:required so always
present.)
