    The shadow package currently requires (fake)root to produce the debs
    due to static non-root:root ownerships in the debs.

  * Remove cron daily backup.
    It was added in 2010 (#554170) as a split off from a previous cron
    job.  I haven't seen an argument for why it's useful to keep.
    Depending on when a mistake occurs in one of the files it backups
    it will provide variable recovery time of 0 to 24hours.
