Package: pam Version: 0.79-4 Severity: normal While merging pam 0.79-4 into Ubuntu, I noticed that the new version of pam_limits calculates the RLIMIT_NICE value passed to setrlimit() using "19 - int_value". However, setpriority(2) says that unice = 20 - knice, implying of course that knice = 20 - unice; the current pam_limits behaviour will map the range [-20,19] onto [39,0] rather than [40,1] as indicated by setpriority(2). Isn't this off by one?
