Debian's man page pam(7) clearly states /usr/lib/pam.d as supported. For the record, here is trixie's version: https://manpages.debian.org/trixie/libpam-runtime/pam.7.en.html#FILES | FILES | | /etc/pam.conf | the configuration file | | /etc/pam.d | the Linux-PAM configuration directory. Generally, if this directory is | present, the /etc/pam.conf file is ignored. | | /usr/lib/pam.d | the Linux-PAM vendor configuration directory. Files in /etc/pam.d override | files with the same name in this directory. I hope this documentation is not wrong, and Debian's Linux-PAM supports this as documented. Best, Chris
