The correct way to fix this issue is not to comment out the lines
mentioning kwallet, but to make the modules silent by prepending a '-'
(dash) to each line. Example:
# /etc/pam.d/lightdm
-authoptionalpam_kwallet.so
-authoptionalpam_kwallet5.so
-session optional
I can confirm the problem with `journalctl`:
Jan 03 01:05:13 tron lightdm[12730]: PAM unable to dlopen(pam_kwallet.so):
/lib/security/pam_kwallet.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or
dire
Jan 03 01:05:13 tron lightdm[12730]: PAM adding faulty module: pam_kwallet.so
Jan 03
#19 works for me except there are two extra lines and another identical
file to change:
#authoptionalpam_kwallet.so
#authoptionalpam_kwallet5.so
#session optionalpam_kwallet.so auto_start
#session optional
I think an *error* message in the logs for a condition that isn't
actually an error (not having kwallet installed in this case), is indeed
a bug.

Same issue . With LDAP.
The pam_wallet error is what shows up in the auth.log - but it is the
failure of Lightdm to work that triggers it .
Lightdm fails - but if I go to term and do getent or id user it works .
If I wait , it works. If the box goes to hibernate , it fails the first
time
I have seen the same thing in 15.04.Looking further, I see that the
entire /lib/security directory is missing. So I'm a little curious as
to what else is gone.
Funny thing is that it was working. I don't know what precipitated the
problem.

j. rose, please file a new bug for your issue; this bug is about the
kwallet warning messages which are confusing but otherwise harmless.
Your situation sounds very different.
To file the bug, please run: apport-bug lightdm
Feel free to copy-and-paste the description, it's a great start.
Thanks
Six month later I have the same issue. I can't login as ordinary user rose with
lightdm.
It is an Ubuntu 15.04 for armv7l .
At the beginning I saw the issues with kwallet, which is not installed. I
commented out the corresponding lines in. I have now:
root@odroid6:~# cat /etc/pam.d/lightdm
Apologist Alexis Wilke says So this is not a bug..
Hogwash, say I.
Read that what you're writing yourself with care, dear Alexis.

Title:
There is information about KWallet.
https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/KDE_Wallet
It is marked as optional because it is allowed to fail as it does when
you are running with Gnome (unity uses Gnome by default). So this is not
a bug. You make comment out the lines as shown in #19 but you may
A workaround is to comment the following lines:
#authoptionalpam_kwallet.so
#session optionalpam_kwallet.so auto_start
in /etc/pam.d/lightdm file

** Summary changed:
- lightdm: PAM unable to dlopen(pam_kwallet.so): /lib/security/pam_kwallet.so
+ Running without pam-kwallet installed issues a warning in auth.log
** Also affects: pam (Ubuntu)
Importance: Undecided
Status: New
** Changed in: lightdm (Ubuntu)
Importance:
This is due to us adding pam_kwallet to the configuration so that KDE
could work correctly with LightDM (bug bug 1305307). The warning occurs
in Ubuntu because you don't have pam-kwallet installed and PAM warns if
a module is not found (even if it is marked optional as in this case).
