Thanks for this report; I did not find any advice on any Ubuntu wiki
pages that say to add the line at the bottom of the PAM configuration
files. The package documentation is also similarly silent on where to
put the configuration line.

Modifying user PAM configurations is extremely dangerous; I don't think
we will publish any updates that modifies existing configurations.

Since there are no Ubuntu changes in the google-authenticator package,
the best way to get the package documentation updated would be to file a
bug report with Debian, and include a debdiff that they can apply to the
package.

Thanks
