+Subject: [PATCH] adduser: set default shell with /sbin/nologin
+
+Shell nologin whether provided by shadow or util-linux is installed to
+/sbin/nologin in oe-core. But the default shell of adduser is
+/usr/sbin/nologin and will fail to create a new user.
+
+Set the default shell with /sbin/nologin to fix the issue.
+
+Upstream-Status: Inappropriate [OE specific]
