Description steffen_brauer 2023-08-23 11:13:10 UTC

Default per https://github.com/shadow-maint/shadow/blob/master/COPYING is BSD

https://github.com/shadow-maint/shadow/blob/master/src/su.c is in part GPL-2+
https://github.com/shadow-maint/shadow/blob/master/src/vipw.c is GPL-2+

https://github.com/shadow-maint/shadow/blob/master/src/nologin.c BSD-2

https://github.com/shadow-maint/shadow/blob/master/libmisc/salt.c https://github.com/shadow-maint/shadow/blob/master/src/login_nopam.c are Unlicense

So LICENSE should be "BSD BSD-2 GPL-2+ Unlicense"

Reproducible: Always
