base-passwd (3.2.1) unstable; urgency=low
* Use a 8192 byte buffer for reading passwd and group entries. If
someone has a group with over 8kb of group members we will still
break (libc has no way to prevent that), but such a system will
be so rate I doubt we will even run into it.

changes. Closes: Bug#51943

* Update Standards-Version to 3.2.1
* Modify update-passwd to use seperate flag lists for users and
groups

on glibc. We'll deal with that when somebody files a bugreport.
