** Description changed:
+ [ Impact ]
+
+ * In the pam 1.5.3-1 merge, documents formerly found in libpam-doc
+ were omitted. Just a few documents remain in a package that
+ formerly had many in /usr/share/doc/libpam-doc/{html,txt}.
+ * A debdiff of the dropped files can be found in attachment
+ 1.5.2-9.1ubuntu3_to_1.5.3-5ubuntu5_libpam-doc.debdiff
+ * The fix takes the form of correcting a build dependency, which
+ results in the docs being again available.
+
+ [ Test Plan ]
+
+ * debdiff
+ * Obtain a copy of the current pam binary packages, perhaps with
+ `pull-lp-debs libpam-doc 1.5.3-5ubuntu5`
+ * Obtain a copy of the proposed pam binary packages, perhaps with
+ `pull-lp-debs libpam-doc 1.5.3-5ubuntu5.1`
+ * `debdiff libpam-doc_1.5.3-5ubuntu5{,.1}_all.deb`
+ and verify that the documents are present
+ * upgrade
+ * Obtain a mantic test system - I personally used a mantic chroot
+ * `apt install libpam-doc doc-base`
+ * Adjust apt sources to change mantic to noble and ensure
+ noble-proposed is present
+ * `apt update; apt install libpam-doc/noble-proposed`
+ * Verify that the "Error in /usr/share/doc-base" messages are no
+ longer present
+
+ [ Where problems could occur ]
+
+ * As usual, no SRU has zero risk
+ * Any change to pam risks problems in user logins failing, so that is
+ reflected in the regression test plan on LP: #2064350
+
+ [ Other Info ]
+
+ * None at this time
+
+ original description follows:

Package: libpam-doc

Severity: normal
An upgrade reported:

This is true; all of /usr/share/doc/libpam-doc/html/Linux-PAM_SAG.html,
/usr/share/doc/libpam-doc/html/sag-*.html,
/usr/share/doc/libpam-doc/txt/Linux-PAM_SAG.txt.gz,

/usr/share/doc/libpam-doc/html/Linux-PAM_MWG.html,
/usr/share/doc/libpam-doc/html/mwg*.html, and
/usr/share/doc/libpam-doc/txt/Linux-PAM_MWG.txt.gz are listed in those
doc-base files but are in fact missing. I don't know whether this is
intentional (in which case the doc-base registrations should be removed
to match), or an accidental build issue that should be fixed.
