Package: adduser
Version: 3.78ubuntu1
Severity: important
Tags: patch

Many chroot environments don't use shadow passwords, and adduser seems to
fail in those enviroments now.  The code in adduser attempts to cope with
this, but it's defeated by the check within the systemcall function.

Patch attached.
