Title:
  package libpam-runtime 1.1.2-2ubuntu8.2 failed to install/upgrade:
  subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit
  status 1

Status in “pam” package in Ubuntu:
  Expired

Bug description:
  Dialog complains that no pam modules have been selected; but when each
  offered choice (unix, gnome keyring, consolekit) is selected, and
  Forward clicked, the same dialog appears repeatedly ... endless loop.

  Due to PAM involvement and my ignorant-knee-jerk-over-reacting-
  paranoia, the 'security vulnerability' is checked; please uncheck when
  appropriate.

  Stock 11.04 install, performing daily update check, expected lib-pam
  to update cleanly; endless loop of 'No PAM modules have been selected
  even when each was selected.
