Package: wnpp Severity: normal I intend to orphan the libpam-afs-session package. I no longer use the package and it doesn't seem likely that I will again soon, so I'm no longer a good maintainer for it.
The package description is: AFS is a distributed network file system. It uses in-kernel credentials (AFS tokens) obtained from Kerberos tickets for authentication and access control, and controls access to those credentials via PAGs (process authentication groups). This module provides a PAM session implementation that puts new logins in separate PAGs and optionally runs an external program (usually aklog) to obtain tokens from Kerberos tickets. It is designed to work with a Kerberos PAM module that obtains the initial Kerberos tickets. Note that the package is also orphaned upstream (I was also the upstream maintainer). It's very stable and hasn't needed significant changes in some years, but it does have some poor interactions with systemd-managed user sessions with modern desktop environments because the environment variable specifying the location of the Kerberos ticket cache is not exposed to the PAM session and thus this PAM module does not work correctly.
