Alejandro Colomar 170b76cdd1 Disable utmpx permanently
On Linux, utmpx and utmp are identical.  However, documentation (manual
pages) covers utmp, and just says about utmpx that it's identical to
utmp.  It seems that it's preferred to use utmp, at least by reading the
manual pages.

Moreover, we were defaulting to utmp (utmpx had to be explicitly enabled
at configuration time).  So, it seems safer to just make it permanent,
which should not affect default builds.

shadow-utils

Introduction

The shadow-utils package includes the necessary programs for converting UNIX password files to the shadow password format, plus programs for managing user and group accounts. The pwconv command converts passwords to the shadow password format. The pwunconv command unconverts shadow passwords and generates a passwd file (a standard UNIX password file). The pwck command checks the integrity of password and shadow files. The lastlog command prints out the last login times for all users. The useradd, userdel, and usermod commands are used for managing user accounts. The groupadd, groupdel, and groupmod commands are used for managing group accounts.
