Package: libpam-fprint
Version: 20080330+git-5
Severity: important
Hi there!
I guess the output below speaks for itself:

=====
This is not acceptable, because ~/.fprint is not anymore accessible by
the normal user, thus breaking every program who tries that without
being root (just imagine a backup script...).
Moreover, I do not see the point in creating an empty folder just for
the sake of it: libpam-fprint should cope with the folder not being
present.
Thx, bye,
Gismo / Luca
