Name        : pam
Product     : Fedora 17
Version     : 1.1.5
Release     : 6.fc17
URL         : http://www.us.kernel.org/pub/linux/libs/pam/index.html
Summary     : An extensible library which provides authentication for applications
Description :
PAM (Pluggable Authentication Modules) is a system security tool that
allows system administrators to set authentication policy without
having to recompile programs that handle authentication.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Update Information:

This update adds pam_systemd to the default PAM configuration files. This might help fixing the bug 815413 although it probably will not fix all the circumstances when this bug appears. It is a correct thing to do anyway though.

ChangeLog:

* Wed May  9 2012 Tomas Mraz <tmraz at redhat.com> 1.1.5-6
- add pam_systemd to session modules
