The Shadow package contains programs for handling passwords in a secure way.
Run the following sed command to disable the installation of the groups and nologin programs, as better versions of these programs are provided by other packages, and prevent Shadow from setting the suid bit on its installed programs:
cp -v src/Makefile.in{,.orig}
sed -e 's/groups$(EXEEXT) //' \
-e 's/= nologin$(EXEEXT)/= /' \
-e 's/\(^suidu*bins = \).*/\1/' \
src/Makefile.in.orig > src/Makefile.in
Tell Shadow to use passwd in /tools/bin:
cat > config.cache << "EOF" shadow_cv_passwd_dir=/tools/bin EOF
Prepare Shadow for compilation:
./configure --prefix=/tools \
--build=${CLFS_HOST} --host=${CLFS_TARGET} --cache-file=config.cache \
--enable-subordinate-ids=no
The meaning of the configure options:
--enable-subordinate-ids=no
Disable subordinate ids option during cross-compile.
Append to config.h since a test
program will not be ran when cross-compiling:
echo "#define ENABLE_SUBUIDS 1" >> config.h
Compile the package:
make
Install the package:
make install
