[Bug 1204530] Re: yppasswd results in a segmentation fault when run on clients or server

[ChristianEhrhardt]

Ok, I did the backport.
This package is somewhat scary old at some places (no patches, dh compatibility level 1 - well undefined).

Yet I was able to keep changes minimal and the changes that went into
the Debian upgrade from .33 to .34 applied as is.

It is building fine in trusty.

I revived my old testbed and confirmed that the fix is really fixing the issue.
With the fix it was working cleanly changing the PW back and forth where it formerly segfaulted as reported in this bug.
