as seen in bug 1492327, adduser now works for creating users in the
extrausers db but when it tries to update the GECOS field at the end of
adding a user (interactively and noninteractively) chfn falls over ...

chfn needs similar patches to the other shadow binaries that recently
got extrausers support.

** Affects: snappy
     Importance: High
         Status: Fix Released

         Status: Confirmed

chfn needs to learn about the --extrausers argument and use libnss-extrausers 
files when set
