** Description changed:

  authd is a new package in resolute, in universe. It's not shipped by
  default.
  
  The new long-awaited version brings many important improvements and bug
  fixes compared to 0.5.11.
  
  The new features which require a FFe are:
  
  1. Change default UID/GID range to 10000:60000. Previously, UIDs and GIDs 
were picked from the range 1000000000:1999999999 which caused issues with LXD 
containers:

+   * https://github.com/canonical/authd/issues/819
+   * https://github.com/canonical/authd/issues/1022
  
  2. Add authctl, a command-line tool to manage authd users and groups. authd 
users and groups can't be modified with standard utilities like shadow-utils 
(usermod and friends). In the new release, authctl supports:
-   * Changing user and group IDs, which helps avoiding the issues with LXD 
mentioned above for existing authd users. 
-   * Locking and unlocking users.
+   * Changing user and group IDs, which helps avoiding the issues with LXD 
mentioned above for existing authd users.
+   * Locking and unlocking users.
  
  Additional capabilities, like changing a user's shell and home
  directory, are planned for the future.
  
  3. Deny login if session is offline and user or device is disabled. This
  is a security feature which closes a loophole that allowed users to
  still log in when they were disabled on the IdP.
  
  The full changelog is available at [1].
  
  We tested the release with:
  * Our unit and integration tests [2]. These are also executed with 
autopkgtest.
- * Our automated end-to-end tests, simulating user interaction [3] (which are 
a bit flaky, which is why there are some failures).
+ * Our automated end-to-end tests, simulating user interaction [3][4][5] 
(which are a bit flaky, which is why there are some failures).
  * A bunch of manual tests. We maintain a spreadsheet for those which I can 
share privately on request.
  
- The 0.6.1 release is available in our PPA [4].
+ The 0.6.1 release is available in our PPA [6].
