[PATCH 0/1] useradd.bbclass: fix how RDEPENDS is setup

[Scott Garman]

Fix bug where only packages named PN included base-passwd in
RDEPENDS. Also remove shadow requirement, since some targets
do not use shadow and file ownership can be changed with only
passwd/group entries.
    
This fixes [YOCTO #1727]

Don't you need shadow or some equivalent to provide /sbin/useradd so
that the postinsts work for on-target installs?  Removing shadow from
RDEPENDS does sound like a good plan for the no-package-management case,
but I'm not sure it's safe otherwise.

Of course you're right. Thank you for pointing this out. I will spin a 
v2 of the patchset.
