return-partial-shadow-information-to-non-root-users.patch: backport
upstream patch to return partial shadow information (leaving out password
hashes) to non-root users. This fixes pam_unix failing in pam_acct_mgmt
while trying to get password expiry information from shadow, thereby
preventing the Unity lockscreen from being unlocked by LDAP users. (LP:
#1314095)

* add init script dependency on $network to ensure that network is up
  before starting nslcd (closes: #726435)
* clean generated manual pages to allow the package to be built tice in
  a row
