pam 1.5.3-5ubuntu1 source package in Ubuntu

Changelog

pam (1.5.3-5ubuntu1) noble; urgency=medium

  * Merge from Debian unstable, remaining changes:
    - 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/ubuntu-rlimit_nice_correction: Explicitly
      initialise RLIMIT_NICE rather than relying on the kernel limits.
    - debian/patches/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/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/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

pam (1.5.3-5) unstable; urgency=medium

  * Revert renaming libpam0g to libpam0t64 for time_t transition: apt
    sometimes removes libpam0g rather than simply letting libpam0t64
    replace libpam0g (and deconfiguring libpam0g), leaving a system where
    essential packages are broken,  Closes: #1065017
    * Since libpam0t64 is going away, we do not need dpkg-diversions for it.
    * As a consequence libpam_misc has an ABI break without a package name
    change.  We believe nothing in the archive depends on this ABI, and at
    least until we come up with a better solution this is the least bad option.
  * For now remove libdb-dev so that libdb-dev can undergo time_t
    transition.  That means this version of pam does not include
    pam_userdb, which makes pam unsuitable for release.
  * Replace/break libpam0t64

Binary packages built by this source

libpam-doc: Documentation of PAM

 Contains documentation (in HTML, ASCII, and PostScript format) for libpam,
 the Pluggable Authentication Modules library, a library that enables the
 local system administrator to choose how applications authenticate users.

libpam-modules: Pluggable Authentication Modules for PAM

 This package completes the set of modules for PAM. It includes the
  pam_unix.so module as well as some specialty modules.

libpam-modules-bin: Pluggable Authentication Modules for PAM - helper binaries

 This package contains helper binaries used by the standard set of PAM
 modules in the libpam-modules package.

libpam-modules-bin-dbgsym: debug symbols for libpam-modules-bin
libpam-modules-dbgsym: debug symbols for libpam-modules
libpam-runtime: Runtime support for the PAM library

 Contains configuration files and directories required for
 authentication to work on Debian systems. This package is required
 on almost all installations.

libpam0g: Pluggable Authentication Modules library

 Contains the shared library for Linux-PAM, a library that enables the
 local system administrator to choose how applications authenticate users.
 In other words, without rewriting or recompiling a PAM-aware application,
 it is possible to switch between the authentication mechanism(s) it uses.
 One may entirely upgrade the local authentication system without touching
 the applications themselves.

libpam0g-dbgsym: debug symbols for libpam0g
libpam0g-dev: Development files for PAM

 Contains C header files and development libraries for libpam, the Pluggable
 Authentication Modules, a library that enables the local system
 administrator to choose how applications authenticate users.
 .
 PAM decouples applications from the authentication mechanism, making it
 possible to upgrade the authentication system without recompiling or
 rewriting the applications.
