[Bug 1983280] Re: package libpam-modules 1.3.1-5ubuntu4.3 failed to install/upgrade: new libpam-modules:amd64 package pre-installation script subprocess returned error exit status 2

[Steve Langasek]

The message in the terminal output explains that pam_tally is obsolete,
and must be replaced in your config before you can upgrade.

Did you use do-release-upgrade for this upgrade or was it manual?

** Changed in: pam (Ubuntu)
