Package: libpam-runtime
Version: 1.3.1-5
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

Running the

  dpkg-reconfigure libpam-runtime
  
command offers the user a list of pam profiles to enable or 
disable. Whether or not the user decides to make any changes, 
dpkg-reconfigure always silently disables the systemd profile, 
breaking a lot of desktop functionality. Attempts to use 
dpkg-reconfigure to re-enable the systemd profile fail 
silently.

The problem can be fixed by running 

  pam-auth-update --enable systemd

but reappears whenever dpkg-reconfigure is used again.

Best wishes, Matthew
