Package: pam
Version: 0.79-4
Severity: normal

The new version of pam_limits does this to bound RLIMIT_NICE from above:

         if (int_value > 19)
            int_value = 19;

... but I think it would make sense also to bound it from below:

         if (int_value < -20)
            int_value = -20;

Thanks,

This has been fixed upstream, and is no longer a problem in Debian.
