Actually, I looked closer at the package, and I see that the packaging was picked up from ubuntu, but not the actual upstream change, these are what are missing: http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-branches/ubuntu/trusty/shadow/trusty/files/head:/debian/patches/userns/ in fact, if you attempt to build the package, you will get an error about missing man pages, which at least one of the patches in the above link adds. > Mostly someone really caring about the package..:-) > > I can't really make that promise but, on the other hand, it seems that > I'm tha last one who can.....
