Public bug reported:
I think this is identical to bug 50587 but the latter is rather old, dating
from 2006.
On the latest ubuntu 16.04 LTS the ownership of /etc/shadow is still not fixed.
To my understanding it should be
-r--r----- 1 root shadow to conform to legacy programs as well
and not
-rw------- 1 root root as it is on a new install.
** Affects: shadow (Ubuntu)
