PostgreSQL version: 8.0.4
Operating system: Redhat Enterprise Linux 4
Description: Existing /etc/pam.d/postgresql clobbered by RPM install
Details:
Hello, I noticed that when installing the 8.0.4 RPM's
it replaced our existing /etc/pam.d/postgresql - this caused our system to
break temporarily, as it was missing the following line:
account required pam_stack.so service=system-auth
I don't know whether this is required for all systems or is just a
peculiarity of our setup, but could the RPM be changed to not clobber this
file in the future. I believe some RPM's install conflicting configs with
the .rpmnew extension. Cheers.
AFAIK, RPMs look for RPM database for the existing files on the system. I
think your file was not generated by any RPM, so our RPM wanted to
replace it.
I can't see any problems with adding
account required pam_stack.so service=system-auth
to our postgresql.pam file. If noone objects, we may release a new
subversion of 8.0.4 with this fix (and elog patch of Tom).
Regards,
