shadow package

I can't find getsubids binary from jammy.

Asked by Netora

Hy, Im having issue getting getsubids binary for ubuntu jammy.
Getsubids available from libsuid4/-dev. But ubuntu jammy and older version didn't include the package when installing uidmap.
It start available only from lunar https://packages.ubuntu.com/search?searchon=sourcenames&keywords=shadow

Is this intentional?

According to https://github.com/89luca89/lilipod/issues/7#issuecomment-1870507828 getsubids is available only from uidmap version 1:4.13 onwards, but in Ubuntu 22.04 there is version 1:4.8.1-*

Alright, so workaround compile from source version 1:4.13 ?

Maybe it is possible to (manually) install the shadow-related packages in version 1:4:13-* from lunar on jammy. I did not see any dependencies that cannot be fulfilled (no warranty given).
