I checked a RHEL7 system and /etc/shells contains both paths, so 
I assume that there is no better solution than duplicating the entries.

I will make usrmerge update /etc/shells on installs, but debianutils 
should be updated as well for new installs where the usrmerge package 
will not be needed anymore.
