Comment (by Bruce Dubbs):

 shadow-4.1.5.1 -> shadow-4.2

 *** general
   * Handle libc whose crypt() returns NULL when passed a salt that
     violates specs or system requirements (e.g. FIPS140). This is needed
     with glibc/eglibc 2.17 for tools checking passwords (passwd (non PAM
     enabled) or newgrp), and for tools generating encrypted passwords
     (chgpasswd, chpasswd, or gpasswd when non PAM enabled or when a fixed
     crypt method is requested on the command line, and newusers, or passwd
     in their non PAM enabled versions)
   * Fix segfault when reading groups split on multiple lines. This impacts
     most user/group management tools when MAX_MEMBERS_PER_GROUP is set.

 - su
   * When su receives a signal (SIGTERM, or SIGINT/SIGQUIT in non
     interactive mode), kill the child process group, rather than just the
     immediate child.
   * Fix segmentation faults for users without a proper home or shell in
     their passwd entries.

 - login
   * Fix segmentation faults for users without a proper home or shell in
     their passwd entries.

 *** documentation
   * Fixed useradd man page (--home-dir option, instead of --home).

 *** translation
   * Updated Russian translation.
   * Updated German man pages translation.
   * Fixed gshadow Japanese man page translation.
