Package: login
Version: 1:4.0.3-31sarge5
Severity: wishlist

Since any login session these days will invoke a shell, there is no
point in having login.defs set the umask -- the shell will override
it anyway. Thus, so that people do not have to decide between
login.defs and profile when trying to set an umask globally,
I suggest login.defs removes the setting.
