shadow (1:4.13+dfsg1-2) unstable; urgency=medium
The previous entry falsely states that PREVENT_NO_AUTH in /etc/login.defs
affects authentication. The historical default of letting all users with
empty password field in without authentication is still in effect.

shadow (1:4.11.1+dfsg1-0exp1) experimental; urgency=medium
Login now prevents an empty password field to be interpreted as
"no authentication required" for UID 0 (root account).
The historical default of letting all users with empty password field
in without authentication can be restored in /etc/login.defs setting
PREVENT_NO_AUTH to "no".

shadow (1:4.7-1) unstable; urgency=medium
* /etc/securetty is no longer shipped by this package and it is no longer
honored in login's PAM configuration by default. Please see #731656 for the
details.

* commands passed in argument to su must use su's -c option and must quote
the command if it contains a space, as in:
su - root -c "ls -l /"
The following commands won't work anymore:
su - root -c ls -l /
su - root "ls -l /"
su - root ls -l /

* passwd does not support the -f, -s, and -g options anymore. You should use
the chfn, chsh and gpasswd utilities instead.
* login now distributes the nologin utility, which can be used as a shell
to politely refuse a login

shadow (1:4.0.12-1) unstable; urgency=low
CLOSE_SESSIONS and other variables are not used anymore in
/etc/login/defs.
As shadow utilities which use this file now warn about unknown
entries there, administrators should remove such unknown entries.
The supplied login.defs file does not include them anymore.
dpasswd is no more distributed by upstream. Login do not support
dialup password anymore. Re-introducing this functionality in
upstream is not trivial.
