First, no, the code which tries to access /etc/default/locale is not in pam. This is configured in the individual, per-package PAM config files in /etc/pam.d/, which are not the responsibility of the pam package. Second, /etc/default/locale is not obsolete, it is the central location where the system locale is to be configured on Debian systems. I'm not sure what localization-config's involvement here is, but if it's responsible for /etc/default/locale being absent on a newly-installed system, then that's a bug in localization-config. But probably it isn't; it's my understanding that /etc/default/locale is the responsibility of the installer, so subject to confirmation by the localization-config maintainer, this bug probably needs to be reassigned again or closed. -- Steve Langasek Give me a lever long enough and a Free OS Debian Developer to set it on, and I can move the world.
