As far as I can tell from your debugging information, pam-krb5 isn't
involved at all, so I don't think it could be what's changed.  Presumably
something changed about pam_unix or something else on your system.  I
don't have any idea what that is, personally.

Well, what do your common-auth and common-password PAM configurations say?
Does one of them make pam_unix optional and the other one make it
required?
