Hi,
I've been trying to replace sudo with run0 on my system. I've also
configured the /etc/environment and /etc/security/pam_env.conf files for
environment variables for all users on the system level. These files will
be loaded by pam_env.so in the PAM stack of sudo:
/etc/pam.d/sudo
```
#%PAM-1.0
auth include system-auth
account include system-auth
session include system-auth
```
where system-auth includes the following line:
```
auth required pam_env.so
```
However, I noticed that the pam_env.so module was not in the PAM stack used
by run0: the "systemd-run0" PAM stack, and all the environment variables in
the configuration files that I used above will not be loaded.
I would like to ask if the pam_env.so module was intentionally excluded
from the "systemd-run0" stack for some reason or just by coincidence that
no one ever thought of adding it in the PAM stack of run0?
That sounds more like a downstream question. E.g., on openSUSE
systemd-run0 does not have any configuration for auth at all and differs
from what the upstream provides. Every distribution may have some
customized PAM configuration.
