I've now read up on the PR, and I think it will not solve the
problem.  Having the session recorded in wtmpdb is nice, but we
already have pam_wtmpdb for that.

who(1) talks to logind for getting currently logged in sessions.
wtmpdb is irrelevant for this.

We need that part to work (again?).

(I also think linking libwtmpdb.so into sshd is not a good idea.)
