** Description changed:

+ [ Impact ]
+ 
+  * The following line has been found in users logs when trying to log in to 
their systems:
+    login[2449]: PAM unable to dlopen(pam_lastlog.so): 
/usr/lib/security/pam_lastlog.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file 
or directory
+    This results in users reporting that they cannot login to their systems. 
They can perhaps do so with other login methods (ssh, login, gdm, xdm, etc) 
that don't depend on the lastlog binary, but that doesn't suffice.
+ 
+  * The upload fixes the issue by dropping pam_lastlog.so from all
+ config, as well as not installing the lastlog binary.
+ 
+ [ Test Plan ]
+ 
+  * TODO: Need to come up with a test plan
+ 
+ [ Where problems could occur ]
+ 
+  * Users may no longer see the last login message when logging in via
+ ssh, or other login methods.
+ 
+ [ Other Info ]
+ 
+  * This should already be fixed in Plucky and onwards, with necessary
+ changes introduced in shadow/1:4.13+dfsg1-5, and in plucky we are
+ already on shadow/1:4.15.3-3ubuntu2.
+ 
+  * pam_lastlog2 is included in util-linux/2.40. We can make changes in
+ shadow going forward that depends on pam_lastlog2 rather than
+ pam_lastlog, going forward. But that's not really relevant to the SRU I
+ guess. These changes are planned to be implemented upstream
+ https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?att=0;bug=1068229;msg=39,
+ so likely from Ubuntu's side, we can just wait for the changes.
+ 
+ [Original description]

  Imported from Debian bug http://bugs.debian.org/1068229:
  
  Package: libpam-modules
  Version: 1.5.3-6
  Severity: normal
  
  I noticed the following line in my logs:
  
  login[2449]: PAM unable to dlopen(pam_lastlog.so):
  /usr/lib/security/pam_lastlog.so: cannot open shared object file: No
  such file or directory
  
  I looked in the deb files from snapshot.debian.org, and noticed the last 
version
  that had it was 1.5.2-9.1 - starting from 1.5.3-1 it disappeared.
  
  Maybe it's fallout from the time_t transition and you're already aware of it, 
in
  which case feel free to close.
  
  Thanks,
