Package: libpam-modules
Version: 1.0.1-9
Severity: grave
Justification: renders package unusable

A recent upgrade in libpam-modules makes it depend on libdb4.7, unfortunately
it seems DB files created with a previous version are NOT compatible with
version 4.7. This makes pam logins based on userdb break silently, with no
error message whatsoever. It would seem this setup is most commonly used for
vsftpd virtual users.

The only apparent solution is to recreate the database file with the newer db
tools.
