You have been subscribed to a public bug by Daniel Holbach (dholbach):

The version of pam_selinux.c in pam 0.99.7.1 is using an old method for
determining contexts. Because of this it does not correctly handle the
seusers configuration. This was fixed in upstream on 6/15/07 and has
been in pam releases starting with 99.8. Most policies use the seusers
feature and without it proper support for SELinux won't be possible in
Hardy (specifically, login security contexts will not be correct). I've
attached an updated source package (which is also available in my PPA
https://launchpad.net/~calebcase/+archive). This is related to a bug in
Debian http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=451722.

Thanks,

Caleb
