Are you saying that the Ubuntu devs were aware of the Debian bug, but not the one in Malone? Or just that they don't take bug reports in their own system seriously?

For what it's worth, I just filed a wishlist bug againt debian's libc6-dev, asking for a backport of the patch that defines RLIMIT_NICE and RLIMIT_RTPRIO in <bits/resource.h>. Perhaps if that happens, the pam maintainers will feel less sketchy about backporting the pam patch. -- Will Dyson
