Dear list,
my system is no more running smooth after yesterday bunch of
upgrades. The box has very classic and standard settings, and
regularly upgraded.
The symptoms:
-when login in runlevel 3, the password prompt appears twice
-after starx (XFCE4), all my previous open windows (Firefox,
thunderbirds,clementine) take age ( 3-4 mn to display the contents).
-Thunderbird return invalid password to mail server, please retry. I
clic on retry, then it starts.
I suspects there is a misconfiguration in my new */etc/pam.d/login*
file, and some authentification issues (se below *auth.log*)
Please find below my *pacman log:*

TY for your help.
EDIT : Please find below *auth.log*. as it seems there is an issue it
it in last lines.:

After enquiring a litle bit, I got the feeling all my issues were due to
a wrong */etc/palm.d/login* after yesterday upgrade of *shadow* and
merging login with login.pacnew.
I removed these lines from *login* file I added after the upgrade:
auth requisite pam_nologin.so
auth include system-local-login
account include system-local-login
session include system-local-login
Now there is no more issues, but I wonder if not adding these lines, as
suggested by login.pacnew, makes my system instable?
