Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: libpam-mount

I'm using libpam-mount to mount a partition handled by cryptsetup.  I'm
asked for my password for pam-mount fairly often, and Enter always
works.  Note that this is only true when I'm logged in.  When I'm not
logged in, I can't access the partition (e.g. as root), so the
encryption seems to be working, and the mounting.  Since I can access my
files without entering any authentication secret when I am logged in, I
can only imagine that pam-mount has no idea if it can access the
resource, and doesn't even try before bugging me about it.

** Affects: libpam-mount (Ubuntu)
