Please merge shadow 1:4.8.1-2 (main) from Debian unstable

[William Wilson]

This merge is necessary because there are changes present in Ubuntu that are not present in Debian.

[Alex Murray (alexmurray)]

I think the changelog entry should still list the private home dirs change for login.defs under Remaining changes

[William Wilson (jawn-smith)]

Thanks for catching that alexmurray. I'll upload new debdiffs in a moment.
