+Subject: [PATCH] Don't auto-enable ACCT_TOOLS_SETUID if PAM is detected
+
+Here's a sad story:
+
+* 70971457 is merged into shadow, allowing newgidmap/newuidmap to be
+installed with file caps rather than setuid.
+* https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/63248 is filed to take advantage of
+this.
+* The arch maintainer of the 'shadow' package notices that this doesn't
+work, and submits a pull request to fix this in shadow.
+* edf7547ad5 is merged, fixing the post install hooks.
+
+The problem here is that distros have been building shadow with PAM for
+O(years), but the install hooks have silently failed due to the
+combination of the directory mismatch (suidubins vs suidsbins) and later
+success with setuid'ing newgidmap/newuidmap.
+
+With the install hooks fixed, those of us (Arch[1] and Gentoo[2] so far)
+who never built shadow explicitly with --enable-account-tools-setuid are
+now getting setuid account tools, and don't have PAM configuration
+suitable for use with setuid account management tools.
+
+It's entirely unclear to me why you'd want this, but I assume there's
+some reason out there for it existing. Regardless, setuid binaries are
+dangerous and shouldn't be enabled by default without good reason.
