ia32-libs: missing PAM modules for ia32 applications

[Meißner, Bodo]

Subject: ia32-libs: missing PAM modules for ia32 applications
Package: ia32-libs
Version: 1.4ubuntu20
Severity: normal

*** Please type your report below this line ***

32-bit applications that wish to use PAM fail with error code
PAM_MODULE_UNKNOWN because they cannot load the 64-bit PAM modules.
There are no 32-bit equivalents to /lib/security/pam_*.so.
Proposed solution:
provide 32-bit versions of the PAM modules in /lib32/security
modify /lib32/libpam.so.0 to look for the modules in /lib32/security
instead of /lib/security.
