Details
Description: We currently track the following files in the filesystem package which should be moved to the shadow package:
/etc/group /etc/gshadow /etc/passwd /etc/shadow /etc/subgid /etc/subuid /usr/share/factory/etc/group /usr/share/factory/etc/gshadow /usr/share/factory/etc/passwd /usr/share/factory/etc/shadow /usr/share/factory/etc/subgid /usr/share/factory/etc/subuid
All of the above are handled by the shadow package and therefore should eventually be moved there (all files below /etc also being in the backup array).
A separate tmpfiles.d integration should be created for the shadow package, to deal with the automatic creation of files from their factory defaults (see https://github.com/archlinux/svntogit-packages/blob/854cf780f2cc4f38fcb254525daa39d8240c14da/trunk/tmpfiles)

This ticket has overlap with #13
In case it's possible and we do not need to provide the files by default at all anymore, then that would be preferred.
