1. Add switch-passwd …

   Add Source for /sbin/switch-passwd and switch-passwd.service.
   
   The script switch-passwd changes /etc/passwd into a symlink
   to passwd.mariux (which is disted) and removes "nis" as
   a passwd source from /etc/nsswitch.conf. These changes
   are not done, if already done or if gdm is running.
   
   On systems with gdm (workstations) which can't upgrade
   immediately, the service switch-passwd.service is used
   to do the switch on the next boot.
   
   /etc/passwd and /etc/nsswitch.conf are temporarily disabled
   from pdist on the Distmaster to allow a rolling upgrade.
   
   After these files are distributed, all system should execute
   
       /sbin/switch-passwd    # attempt immediate switch
       systemctl enable switch-passwd.service
   
   After all systems have upgraded (immediate or after reboot) we
   can re-enable /etc/passwd and /etc/nsswitch.conf in the Distfile
   and remove these switch-passwd files.
