pam 0.79-4ubuntu1 source package in Ubuntu

Changelog

pam (0.79-4ubuntu1) feisty; urgency=low

  * Resynchronise with Debian. Remaining changes:
    - Patch 100 (renumbered from 060): Look at ~/.pam_environment too, with
      the same format as /etc/security/pam_env.conf.
    - Patch 101 (renumbered from 061): Explicitly initialise RLIMIT_NICE
      rather than relying on the kernel limits. Bound RLIMIT_NICE from below
      as well as from above. Fix off-by-one error when converting
      RLIMIT_NICE to the range of values used by the kernel.
    - Add PATH to /etc/environment if it's not present there or in
      /etc/security/pam_env.conf.
    - debian/rules: Fix a bashism.
    - Install unix_chkpwd setgid shadow instead of setuid root. The nis
      package handles overriding this as necessary.
    - Use pam_foreground in the default session.
    - Linux-PAM/libpamc/test/regress/test.libpamc.c: Use standard u_int8_t
      type rather than __u8.

pam (0.79-4) unstable; urgency=medium

  * Medium-urgency upload; at least one RC bugfix, but also a
    significant number of changes, hence not urgency=high.
  * Move libpam-modules and libpam0g to Section: libs and libpam-runtime
    to section: admin, to match the overrides in the archive.
  * Move old changelog entries (well, entry) that don't follow the current
    format to debian/changelog.old, since there's no way to figure out a
    timestamp for an 8-year-old upload, and this is the most effective
    way to clear a glut of lintian warnings.
  * Fix the formatting of the libpam-cracklib package description.
  * Patch 010: remove parts of the patch that aren't necessary for C++
    compatibility.
  * Patch 060: fix a segfault in pam_tally caused by misuse of
    pam_get_data(); already fixed upstream.  Closes: #335273.
  * Patch 061: fix a double free in pam_issue, caused by overuse (and misuse)
    of strdup (similar to patch 059).  Already fixed upstream.
    Closes: #327272.
  * Don't build-depend on libselinux1-dev and libcap-dev on kfreebsd archs.
    Closes: #352329.
  * Patch 005: sync pam_limits with upstream:
    - support "-" (unlimited) for all limit types except process priority.
    - support the additional aliases "-1", "unlimited", and "infinity" for
      clearing the limits; closes: #122400, #149027.
    - restrict the range of process priority, login count, and system login
      count settings to (INT_MIN,INT_MAX) (heh).
    - special-case RLIM_INFINITY when applying multipliers to values from
      the config.
    - document maxsyslogins in the default limits.conf; closes: #149883.
    - use the current process priority as a default instead of resetting to
      0; closes: #241663.
    - add support for (and document) new RLIMIT_NICE and RLIMIT_RTPRIO
      settings in Linux 2.6.12 and above; closes: #313542, #313588.
    - allow imposing limits on uid=0.
  * Patch 027: only set RLIM_INFINITY as the default for the limits where
    we know this is sensible, so that recompiling in an environment with new
    limits doesn't create a security hole -- as happened with RLIMIT_NICE and
    RLIMIT_RTPRIO!  Thanks to Ville Hallik for the initial patch.
    Closes: #388431.
  * Patch 029, 047: Fix up the broken pam_limits capabilities patch so it
    actually works -- which may well be a first...  Closes: #318452.

pam (0.79-3.2) unstable; urgency=low

  * Non-maintainer upload to fix important bug, that makes passwd segfault
    when CTRL-D is pressed at the password prompt.  Applied the patch
    provided by Dann Frazier.  (Closes: #360657)
