And if you can explain me, how pam-config should integrate unknown modules into the stack without creating a very big security hole: you are welcome to implement it. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

You are the developer. Be creative. Looking e.g. at mod_pam_apparmor this is pure boiler plate code. pam-config could generate that just as well at run time based e.g. on a trivial config file dropped by the pam_apparmor package. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

Because it was already answered in comment #3.
That doesn't explain anything.
Between, it's not my software work and I'm not the developer ...
