I don't know the answer, but I have a guess. I've noticed that often a
prerequisite is installed one place (maybe it changed from a former
location) and the dependent thinks it's elsewhere. The solution is often
a symlink (until the dependent gets "caught up").

If you do an "updatedb" and then "locate security-providers", you might
get lucky. If it turns out that it's really not on your system, the
google approach often yields clues to a solution.
