Public bug reported:
pam_umask is the new and only facility to set the umask consistently for
different login shells, X, ssh, cron, ... .
But, pam_umask is not called in common-session. Instead the old
workaround since the introduction of pam once broke the login.defs UMASK
setting is still used (setting an umask in /etc/profile and
unset/default umasks otherwhere).
The line "session optional pam_umask.so" will need to be in /etc/pam.d
/common-session in any case. You can use pam-auth-profile to make it at
option.
With the line "session optional pam_umask.so usergroups" even the user
private group scheme is supported (if pam_umask can confirm the privacy
of the group).
** Affects: pam (Ubuntu)
