[Bug 480106] [NEW] ccreds_chkpwd miss setuid

[Guilhem Lettron]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: libpam-ccreds

ccreds_chkpwd must have setuid rights because a program as "gnome-
screensaver" must use it.

We use ccreds with an ldap and if computer isn't in the network, the
authentification in gnome-screensaver doen't work.

Ther is a old changelog, but this is broken in the karmic package :

libpam-ccreds (4-3) unstable; urgency=low

  * Add a setuid ccreds_chkpwd binary to allow non root programs to verify the
    password. Patch based on http://bugzilla.padl.com/show_bug.cgi?id=227 with
    numerous cleanups. (Closes: #358818)
