  Description     : Python module for simple PAM authentications

Provide an authenticate() function that will allow the caller to
authenticate a user against the Pluggable Authentication Modules
(PAM) on the system.

The module pam.py is a single file, implemented using ctypes, so
no compilation is necessary.

The pam.py module (package will have a single .py file) eases PAM
authentication with Python tremendously (compared to using the PAM
module from the python-pam package. PAM authentication becomes a
one-liner.

The original upstream project name is Python PAM. As this interferes
with the python-pam package name, I chose python-pampy is package
name. Any feedback on this name change is welcome (any other feedback,
as well).
