Description:

Puppet relies on the ruby-shadow package in order to set and enforce Unix user passwords.
The puppet package doesn't have ruby-shadow as a dependency, so out of the box Puppet can't manage passwords.

Since this is a pretty basic use-case for Puppet, could we get ruby-shadow added to the dependency list?


Steps to reproduce:

Create a user resource and give it a password. On a default installation without ruby-shadow installed, the password will not be set or enforced.
After installing ruby-shadow, the password will be set correctly.


Thanks!
