[Bug 1336663] Re: lightdm uses wrong ccache name on pam_krb5 credentials refresh

This bug occurs when when using LightDM as a lockscreen and pam-krb5 not
correctly updating the credentials of the session you switch back to.

It's not clear if the problem is the way we are using PAM in LightDM
(i.e. insufficient/wrong information for pam-krb5 to do the right thing)
or an assumption by pam-krb5 that is not occurring.

Bug description:
  As already noted by Brian Knoll in https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/lightdm/+bug/1296276/comments/24
  lightdm 1.10.1-0ubuntu1 uses an inappropriate credentials cache, /tmp/krb5cc_0, when refreshing Kerberos credentials on screen unlock.
