Package: libpam-encfs
Version: 0.1.4.1-4
Severity: normal
Tags: squeeze upstream
libpam-encfs does not read encfs's stderr and so, can't display any error
message from it. That's why we can't have any information from syslog, except
that message:
pam_encfs[11974]: exitcode : 1, errorstring :
This little patch copy stderr on stdout, verbose mode has to be disable as
pam-encfs will only read 512 characters from encfs output.
