endpwend() sequences (ditto for getgrent(), getspent(), and
getsgent()). The only real (minor) issue was in login, which kept
the passwd file open.
* libmisc/entry.c: Remove unneeded setspent() and endspent() (only
getspnam is called in the middle).
* libmisc/find_new_ids.c: Make sure to close the password and
group files with endpwent() and endgrent().
* libmisc/pwdcheck.c: Remove unneeded endspent() (only getspnam()
is called before).
* src/lastlog.c, src/passwd.c, src/groupmod.c, src/faillog.c,
src/groups.c: Make sure to close
the password file with endpwent().
* src/login.c: Remove unneeded setpwent() (only xgetpwnam is
called before).
* src/login.c, src/newgrp.c: Fix typos in comments.
Fail if the feature is requested but the library (or
header file) could not be found. If nothing is specified, enable
the feature only if we can find the library (or header file).
$(pamd_files). Remove the duplicate useradd. And sort
alphabetically. Thanks to Mark Rosenstand <mark@borkware.net>.
* NEWS: Prepare next release, 4.1.2.
files are unlocked on exit. Unlock locked files in fail_exit().
Prefer fail_exit() over exit().
* NEWS, src/groupmod.c: When the GID of a group is changed, update
also the GID of the passwd entries of the users whose primary
group is the group being modified.
removed is used by different entries (like commonio_update does).
* NEWS: This fix the behavior of groupdel when the system is not
configured to support split group but different group entries
have the name of the group to be deleted.
unlocked on exit. Add function fail_exit(). Use fail_exit()
instead of exit().
* src/groupdel.c: Fail immediately instead of increasing errors.
Better handling of error cases, like locked group or gshadow file.

* src/gpasswd.c (get_group): Do not fail if gshadow is not present. Just use
the group file and set the grent structure
* src/gpasswd.c (check_perms): The permissions should be checked
using both the gshadow and group file. Add a <struct group *>
parameter, and check if the gshadow file exists (is_shadowgrp).
* src/gpasswd.c (main): Do not use sgent.sg_mem or sgent.sg_adm if
the gshadow file is not present (sgent is not initialized in that
case). The fields of sgent can be set, but not used.
Document new variables.
* man/newusers.8.xml, man/login.defs.5.xml,
man/login.defs.d/GID_MAX.xml, man/login.defs.d/UID_MAX.xml:
newusers uses now the GID_MAX, GID_MIN, UID_MAX, UID_MIN,
SYS_GID_MAX, SYS_GID_MIN, SYS_UID_MAX, and SYS_UID_MIN variables.
* man/groupadd.8.xml, man/login.defs.5.xml: groupadd uses now the
SYS_GID_MAX, and SYS_GID_MIN variables.
* man/login.defs.5.xml: useradd uses now the SYS_GID_MAX,
SYS_GID_MIN, SYS_UID_MAX, and SYS_UID_MIN variables.
