5280	Add libxcrypt and use it instead of Glibc libcrypt	Xi Ruoyao	Xi Ruoyao	"Glibc developers consider Glibc libcrypt implementation deprecated, and libcrypt may be disabled by default in Glibc-2.38 (a patch is under review now).

As libcrypt is security-related, it seems a bad idea to override the upstream decision and stick with the deprecated implementation.  Many distros has already switched to [https://github.com/besser82/libxcrypt libxcrypt] for providing libcrypt.so.

We can add libxcrypt immediately before shadow, which is the first package in LFS using libcrypt."	enhancement	closed	normal	12.0	Book	git	normal	fixed
