Package: kdebase-bin
Version: 4:3.1.3-1
Severity: normal
kckeckpass will operate correctly using pam_unix.so when not SUID root as the
helper program unix_chkpwd is SUID.
Having program use the functionality of pam_unix is preferable to doing it
themselves, that way there is only one SUID program that needs to be
audited.
