[Bug 369575] Re: Why is /usr/share/pam-configs/krb5 specifying minimum_uid= ?

[Daniel Richard G.]

You can see why I'm pushing on this. It's pay now, or pay later... no
real gain in waiting :-]

Ah, yes, users who've been dist-upgrading their Ubuntu installs since
Warty... I guess there's no such thing as "temporary" postinst logic, if
those need to be handled.

A warning wouldn't be so bad. The users who would see it are those who
are (1) dist-upgrading a distribution that (2) uses Kerberos
authentication. Which often occurs in (3) an institutional setting with
dedicated admins who can hand-hold/auto-script the change as needed. I
don't think so many would be affected, and of those who are, a large
part should be spoken for by their mother hens.

How did PAM-related packages manage changes to /etc/pam.d/* before pam-
auth-update came along? Yeah, automated editing is gauche, but it's not
like you just can't do *anything* in that sort of scenario...
