New comment by alejandro-colomar on void-packages repository https://github.com/void-linux/void-packages/pull/48813#issuecomment-1986847616 Comment: > Some distros are also carrying this patch https://git.alpinelinux.org/aports/tree/community/shadow/fix-undefined-reference.patch Maybe it's useful? That patch shouldn't be necesary. Please don't apply it unless you find a reason to. And if you do (find a build error that requires the patch), please report it as an upstream bug. Would you mind asking the Alpine maintainer if they can comment on that patch? I'm interested in fixing upstream if there's something broken, but I'd like to learn what's broken, because that patch looks like a red herring.
