Jun  8 17:06:32 vent pam_ssh[1885]: error: bad permissions: ignore key: 
/home/allan/.ssh/login-keys.d/id_dsa.pub

Both of these files are symbolic links on my system:

lrwxrwxrwx 1 allan users  9 Jan 14 21:29 id_dsa -> ../id_dsa
lrwxrwxrwx 1 allan users 13 Jan 14 21:28 id_dsa.pub -> ../id_dsa.pub

so it is a little confusing that it talks about the link yet looks at the
permissions of the linked file.

It complains about the private key yet the permissions in the above and the
file name is the public key.  Not sure there is any issues with the public key
being readable by others.

In any case the actual problem, I think, is that the public key should not
be present in .ssh/login-keys.d.
