Hi Balint, dpkg -i libpam-runtime* will throws an error cause it trys to symlink pam.7.gz to PAM.7.gz since Windows filesystem is case*in*sensitive this both files are the same and so the symlink will get refused cause the file already exists. So apt upgrade won't work on Windows. Maybe there is also a Windows way to upgrade Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSL) but since apt tools are working it should be fix IMHO.
So if there is no reason behind "PAM && pam" it would be good if it will be removed. If there is a reason maybe the postinstall scripts could generate the symlink after checking that it is a casesensitive fs. Thanks for the msdn link. I will check if it works. This might be a solution, cause other linux packages might have the same issue.

This does not work for caseinsensitive filesystems e.g. Windows Subsystem for Linux Status in pam package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: The package libpam-runtime contains a symlink pam.7.gz -> PAM.7.gz in ./usr/share/man/man7 and this doesn't work in Windows Subsystem for Linux since Windows has a caseinsensitive filesystem. On ubuntu 18.04 this PAM.7.gz exists too. I know it's not a linux centric issue. But why libpam-runtime is using Uppercase and symlinks anyway? Other packgages in man7 just use lowercase, and this is what I'm expecting. Hopefully you can fix it.
