We've carried both pam_console and HAL-based ACL support for a while
now. It's time to cut the cord and remove pam_console, so we only
have one way of setting device permissions to worry about.

Here's the list of packages that still contain pam_console configuration
that would need migrated:

pam	(tmraz at redhat.com)
/etc/security/console.perms.d/50-default.perms

em8300	(ville.skytta at iki.fi)
/etc/security/console.permbs.d/60-em8300.perms

jfbterm	(mtasaka at ioa.s.u-tokyo.ac.jp)
/etc/security/console.perms.d/60-jfbterm.perms

libmtp	(triad at df.lth.se)
/etc/security/console.perms.d/60-libmtp.perms

libnjb	(triad at df.lth.se)
/etc/security/console.perms.d/60-libnjb.perms

thinkfinger	(silfreed at silfreed.net)
/etc/security/console.perms.d/60-thinkfinger.perms

vdr	(ville.skytta at iki.fi)
/etc/security/console.perms.d/95-vdr.perms

dfu-programmer	(weston_schmidt at alumni.purdue.edu)
/etc/security/console.perms.d/dfu-programmer-at89c51.perms
/etc/security/console.perms.d/dfu-programmer-at90usb.perms

piklab	(cgoorah at yahoo.com.au)
/etc/security/console.perms.d/icd2.perms
/etc/security/console.perms.d/pickit1.perms
/etc/security/console.perms.d/pickit2.perms

These all seem like they'd be reasonable to fix. Does anyone
see this as a problem?
