Hello Balint, or anyone else affected, Accepted pam into eoan-proposed. The package will build now and be available at https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/pam/1.3.1-5ubuntu1.19.10.0 in a few hours, and then in the -proposed repository. Please help us by testing this new package. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation on how to enable and use -proposed. Your feedback will aid us getting this update out to other Ubuntu users. If this package fixes the bug for you, please add a comment to this bug, mentioning the version of the package you tested and change the tag from verification-needed-eoan to verification-done-eoan. If it does not fix the bug for you, please add a comment stating that, and change the tag to verification-failed-eoan. In either case, without details of your testing we will not be able to proceed. Further information regarding the verification process can be found at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/QATeam/PerformingSRUVerification . Thank you in advance for helping! N.B. The updated package will be released to -updates after the bug(s) fixed by this package have been verified and the package has been in -proposed for a minimum of 7 days. ** Changed in: pam (Ubuntu Eoan) Status: New => Fix Committed ** Tags added: verification-needed verification-needed-eoan -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to pam in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1855092 Title: [SRU] Please set MOTD_SHOWN=pam when MOTD was shown Status in pam package in Ubuntu: In Progress Status in pam source package in Eoan: Fix Committed Bug description: [Impact] * Users of containers may never see the MOTD of the container if they are always to the container's shell without PAM being involved. * MOTD contains important information about the system's health including the security updates to be installed thus it is desired to show MOTD in container shells, too. * The fix in update-motd is creating a snippet in /etc/profile.d which shows MOTD, but only if UPDATE_MOTD is not set, to avoid printing MOTD twice.
