As far as I'm concerned, Debian PAM is basically forked from the
upstream already. Upstream does not act on patches in a reasonable
time line; upstream does not respond to mail questions; upstream
releases versions of PAM that cannot work with applications like cron
or ssh
I do try to make sure that I have a number of patches open against
upstream PAM on the off chance they ever get reviewed. I will try and
resync with PAM releases from time to time; I chose not to care about
0.77 but will hopefully care about the next PAM release.
If you think this sucks, you're right. If you think you can do a
better job of getting upstream to listen than I, be my guest.
