okay this isn't a release, release.  It is a pre-release that fixes the

I have a mostly functional addition to authconfig for enabling and
disabling it.  I am wondering if the architecture for this app needs to
be extended to make it easy for each pam_package to add an xml file
somewhere to add support for it in authconfig.

The release above has 95% of the code for support of pam_sm_chauthtok.
It has a couple of small bugs that I plan on fixing for full
functionality in supporting changing the keyring password in the
pam_stack.  

This will change partially again in 2.20 when we add support for a
on_login keyring in gnome-keyring.  I just got wiki write access and
will create a page about it this weekend.
