Changelog

pam (1.4.0-10ubuntu1) jammy; urgency=medium

  * Merge from Debian unstable (LP: #1916509). Remaining changes:
    - debian/control: have libpam-modules recommend update-motd package
    - debian/libpam-modules.postinst: Add PATH to /etc/environment if it's
      not present there or in /etc/security/pam_env.conf. (should send to
      Debian).
    - debian/libpam0g.postinst: only ask questions during update-manager when
      there are non-default services running.
    - debian/libpam0g.postinst: check if gdm is actually running before
      trying to reload it.
    - debian/patches-applied/ubuntu-rlimit_nice_correction: Explicitly
      initialise RLIMIT_NICE rather than relying on the kernel limits.
    - debian/patches-applied/pam_umask_usergroups_from_login.defs.patch:
      Deprecate pam_unix's explicit "usergroups" option and instead read it
      from /etc/login.def's "USERGROUP_ENAB" option if umask is only defined
      there. This restores compatibility with the pre-PAM behaviour of login.
    - debian/patches-applied/pam_motd-legal-notice: display the contents of
      /etc/legal once, then set a flag in the user's homedir to prevent
      showing it again.
    - debian/update-motd.5, debian/libpam-modules.manpages: add a manpage
      for update-motd, with some best practices and notes of explanation.
    - debian/patches/update-motd-manpage-ref: add a reference in pam_motd(8)
      to update-motd(5)
    - debian/local/common-session{,-noninteractive}: Enable pam_umask by
      default, now that the umask setting is gone from /etc/profile.
    - debian/local/pam-auth-update: Add the new md5sums for pam_umask addition.
    - debian/patches-applied/extrausers.patch: Add a pam_extrausers module
      that is basically just a copy of pam_unix but looks at
      /var/lib/extrausers/{group,passwd,shadow} instead of /etc/
    - debian/libpam-modules-bin.install: install the helper binaries for
      pam_extrausers to /sbin
    - debian/rules: Make pam_extrausers_chkpwd sguid shadow
    - Add lintian override for pam_extrausers_chkpwd
    - Disable custom daemon restart detection code if needrestart is available
    - d/libpam-modules.postinst: Add /snap/bin to $PATH in /etc/environment
  * Dropped changes, obsoleted:
    - pam_motd: Export MOTD_SHOWN=pam after showing MOTD
    - Return only PAM_IGNORE or error from pam_motd
    - Fix patches to fix FTBFS
    - Backport pam_faillock module from pam 1.4.0
    - debian/patches-applied/nullok_secure-compat.patch: Support
      nullok_secure as a deprecated alias for nullok.
    -  debian/pam-configs/unix: use nullok, not nullok_secure.
  * Patches:
    - d/p/pam_motd-legal-notice: refreshed
    - Refreshed d/p/pam_umask_usergroups_from_login.defs.patch to use
      pam_modutil_search_key instead of our own hand-rolled version
    - d/p/extrausers.patch: Refreshed the patch and fixed the
      HAVE_LIBSELINUX conditional removed upstream.
  * d/local/pam-auth-update: refreshed the md5sum for debian/local/common-session
