[Buildroot] [PATCH v4 1/1] package/shadow: new package

[stephane gonauer]

Hi Raphael,

I've also noticed that BR2_PER_PACKAGE_DIRECTORIES introduces
randomness in the content of /etc/pam.d

When enabled login works because /etc/pam.d mostly contains the
etc/pam.d from BR2_PACKAGE_LINUX_PAM because they were copied into
busybox then into the target.

So all tests should be done withtout BR2_PER_PACKAGE_DIRECTORIES to
have a more reproductible environment.

Stéphane
