4632	ICA: Some shadow programs incorrectly reference /bin/passwd after first build	Bruce Dubbs	lfs-book	"login, expiry, and su hardcode /bin/passwd insted of /usr/bin/passwd. This may lead to the impossibility of renewing a password when it is expired.

'''Explanation''' Shadow's configure tests whether /usr/bin/passwd exists, and if not, hardcodes /bin/passwd. This is close to a bug: it should harcode $prefix/bin/passwd. Anyway...

'''Solution''' touch /usr/bin/passwd before building shadow.

'''Possible side effect''' None that I can think of: the empty file is almost immediately replaced when installing shadow. "	task	closed	normal	10.0	Book	SVN	normal	fixed
