Package: libpam-runtime
Version: 1.0.1-5+lenny1
Severity: normal

libpam-runtime.postinst does a clever "update if the md5sums match our
records" bit, but only

  if [ -z "$2" ] || dpkg --compare-versions "$2" lt 0.76-17

which appears to mean it only triggers on upgrades from sarge to etch
(since lenny is 1.0.1-5+lenny1 and etch is 0.79-5+etch1) but
/usr/share/pam/common-passwords.md5sum in partiular *did* get updated
between etch and lenny, so it looks like this is intended to be
applied currently...

(not 100% sure on my reading of the script, but I'm only looking at
 this because I have an etch to lenny upgrade where it didn't happen...)

Hmm, very unfortunate, I wonder how that was overlooked.  It's a moot point
for squeeze, where this code has been completely replaced; and I'm not sure
it's worth an upload to proposed-updates to try to fix it for lenny now.
