* debian/securetty.kfreebsd: On GNU/kFreeBSD the serial devices have change
from /dev/cuuaX to /dev/ttydX in kernel 6.0. Closes: #544523
* debian/securetty.linux: Added support for embedded ARM AMBA PL011 ports
(e.g. emulated by QEMU). Closes: #544184
* debian/control: Removed Martin Quinson from the Uploaders, on his request.
* debian/login.defs: Improve documentation of USERGROUPS_ENAB.
Closes: #572687
* debian/rules: Added DEB_AUTO_UPDATE_LIBTOOL = pre. Closes: #560633
* debian/login.pam: return back to mostly "requisite" for the pam_securetty
PAM module, but ignore PAM_USER_UNKNOWN. This will avoid root from
entering a password, and will also avoid user enumeration attacks.
Mis-typed root login are not protected, only root can be blamed for
mis-typing and entering a password on an insecure line. Users willing to
protect against mis-typed root login can use "requisite", but will be
vulnerable to user enumeration attacks on insecure lines, and should use
pam 1.1.0-4 at least. Closes: #574082, #531341
* debian/passwd.cron.daily: Handle the backups of the user and group
databases so that it can be removed from the standard daily cron job.
Closes: #554170
* debian/login.defs: Updated description of UMASK (used by pam_umask).
* debian/securetty.linux: Reorganize and synchronize with
Documentation/devices.txt. This added a lot of TTYs, including the
ttyPZ0..3. Closes: #576203
* debian/rules, debian/man.insert, debian/man.insert.sed: Hack to avoid bug
507673, causing missing apostrophes in the manpages generated by
docbook-xsl (see debian bug 507673).
* debian/control: Standards-Version: bumped to 3.8.4. No changes.
* debian/passwd.lintian-overrides: Remove old entries relevant for
passwd.config.
* debian/control: Do not repeat the Section and Priority fields for the
binary packages.
* debian/rules: Disable new features: --without-acl --without-attr
--without-tcb
