I had this issue on my Hardy system. If I run a command through sudo, I get these messages in my /var/log/auth.log file:
PAM addding faulty module: /lib/security/pam_foreground.so PAM [error: /lib/security/pam_foreground.so: cannot open shared object file or directory] PAM unable to dlopen(/lib/security/pam_foreground.so) Manually installing libpam-foreground makes the errors go away and fixes the problem. One way or another, this package should be installed by default. It needs to be a dependency of some package or another. -- ubuntu-standard doesn't depend on libpam-foreground https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/195880 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
