Actually, libpam-modules are installed by default and this new
pam_umask.so should be enabled in common-session by default (Bug
#253096).

pam_umask now recovers the umask functionality that login once had for
pam systems. (see man pam_umask) It gets the users umask from several
places.

That means UMASK may be uncommented in login.defs or point to
/etc/default/login if it is introduced (linux stardard base?).

/etc/profile should then be commented, not contain umask settings
anymore, and point to "man pam_umask" or /etc/default/login or
/etc/default/login respectively.

login.defs references libpam-umask which is a obsolete package
