I'm sorry, but I don't see this problem at all on my systems, and I did test fairly extensively before uploading. To help you fix this, I will need to know the contents of your /etc/pam.d/login and /etc/pam.d/common-* files. Are you completely locked out of the machine? If so, you will probably need to reboot with the 'single' option to get a single-user shell on the system, or you might even be better off booting from rescue media depending on how badly broken things are. Once you're able to log in, I would suggest that the first thing you should do is downgrade the libpam-modules and libpam0g packages, so that you can get back to using your system while we continue debugging this problem. For information, all of the following modules have been tested, at least in their default configurations, prior to my upload: pam_securetty, pam_nologin, pam_env, pam_group, pam_limits, pam_lastlog, pam_motd, pam_mail, pam_krb5, pam_unix, pam_selinux, pam_rootok, pam_access so your configuration seems to be quite extraordinary after all if it depends on a module not in this list for login. Again, I'm sorry that it's broken for you, but I will definitely need more information to figure out why. -- Steve Langasek Give me a lever long enough and a Free OS Debian Developer to set it on, and I can move the world.
