>Description:
Lack of description about -l option (changing local user database
information) on the chpass (chfn, chsh) man page.
	
>How-To-Repeat:
chsh (chfn, chpass) works as follows:
$ chsh
[Changing user YP database information for the user]
$ chsh -l
[Changing user local database information for the user]
	
>Fix:
Add an explanation of -l option, like passwd(1)'s -l option.
