the configure should be:

Does util-linux nologin binary overwrite shadow's? If so, that is
desired because util-linux ships a better nologin binary.
I am using rpm package manager. It causes a conflict when a file is
already installed by another package.
You then have to remove one of them from one of the packages.
Coreutils will also overwrite groups program because it is better than
shadow's groups binary.
There isn't a "groups" executeable installed by shadow.
Yes, we do disable that.
Then why not disable nologin in shadow as well?
Why over write only one of them?
Rather, shadow, if not wanting to install groups or nologin installed,
could edit Makefile.in to exclude those.
On my builds I just rm the duplicate file from one of the packages
before it is packaged up by rpm so I don't have to edit any of the
Makefiles.
For the book the later package will over write the earlier package, and
you will not know the over write has occurred.
That seems like the correct behavior to me.
but not consistent as above
Do you want to submit a patch?
