Subject: passwd -l regression from #389183
Package: passwd
Version: 1:4.1.1-2
Severity: important

*** Please type your report below this line ***

Hello

in http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=389183 a patch to
passwd had been introduced, which sets the expiry flag to locked
accounts.

Now:

lenny:~# whoami
root
lenny:~# head -1 /etc/shadow
root:$1$PfGgqPXx$EEhX5V1pTYd1hbr8j6wl.1:14085:0:99999:7:::
lenny:~# LANG=C passwd -l root
Password changed.
lenny:~# head -1 /etc/shadow
root:!$1$dnJSdUJb$kE6tQO.fAeSUl2hoOTPWQ1:14085:0:99999:7::1:
lenny:~# LANG=C passwd
Enter new UNIX password:
Retype new UNIX password:
passwd: password updated successfully
lenny:~# head -1 /etc/shadow
root:$1$dnJSdUJb$kE6tQO.fAeSUl2hoOTPWQ1:14085:0:99999:7::1:

as you can see the flag isn't removed again when the account is reopend
later again.

second there are users who have problems when installing in expert mode
and set the "install without root" option:
http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.debian.user/330437

with cronjobs and therelike.

Imho this is a regression in passwd.

Instead to entangle the -l and the -e into one option that doesn't work
for all it maybe would be better to document the background of #389183 in
the manpage (maybe nearby the -l option) and revert that change.

Changes: 
 shadow (1:4.1.1-3) unstable; urgency=low
 .
   * The "Morbier" release.
   * debian/patches/302_vim_selinux_support: Add SE Linux support to vipw/vigr.
     Thanks to Russell Coker. Closes: #491907
   * debian/patches/494_passwd_lock-no_account_lock: Restore the previous
     behavior of passwd -l (which changed in #389183): only lock the user's
     password, not the user's account. Also explicitly document the
     differences. This restores a behavior common with the previous versions of
     passwd and with other implementations. Closes: #492307
   * debian/patches/494_passwd_lock-no_account_lock: Add a reference to
     usermod(8) in passwd(1). Closes: #412234
   * debian/login.pam: Enforce a fail delay to avoid login brute-force.
     Closes: #443322
   * debian/login.pam: Indicate why the pam_securetty module is used as a
     requisite module and mentions the possible drawbacks. Closes: #482352
   * debian/login.defs: Do not mention the libpam-umask package (the module is
     now provided by libpam-modules). Closes: #492410
   * debian/patches/200_Czech_binary_translation: Updated Czech translation.
     Thanks to Miroslav Kure. Closes: #482823
   * debian/securetty.linux: Add the PA-RISC mux ports (ttyB0, ttyB1).
     Closes: #488515
