Title:
  libuuid1 uses chsh in postinst which breaks upgrades

Status in “util-linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  Older systems that have the libuuid user with a interactive shell
  (/bin/sh) will fail spectacularly during a trusty->utopic upgrade
  because chsh will ask for a password and hang and if the user enters a
  password it will fail with a postinst failure really deep in the
  stack.

  This is debian bug https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-
