[Pkg-shadow-devel] Bug#1074320: shadow: clean up now obsolete /var/log/faillog

[Christoph Anton Mitterer]

Source: shadow
Version: 1:4.15.2-2
Severity: wishlist


Hey.

Now that /var/log/faillog is obsolete and the tool for reading it is gone, too,
(so the user cannot really do much with the old file anymore), shouldn't the
file be cleaned up (or at least some note given in NEWS.Debian about this
having to be done manually)?

Otherwise, it will linger around forever on legacy installation.


Cheers,
Chris.
