Subject: [bug#55762] [PATCH] Upgrade linux-pam to 1.5.2
Date: Thu, 2 Jun 2022 05:09:07 -0700

[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]

Control: tags -1 + patch

Hi,

For my work in making PAM configurable in Guile, I rely on the foreign
function interface (FFI). The automatic generation of that interface
requires Pkgconfig files. Those files are not available in Guix.
Linux-PAM started shipping them in the release after the one we have.
The attached patch upgrades linux-pam to version 1.5.2.

The changes are further documented in the commit message.

I am new to Guix and already use the new version of linux-pam locally
(via Guix System) but I was unable to test the patch according to the
requirements and recommendations listed for this submission. [1]

This email was sent to -devel in lieu of -mentors, which does not
exist. Any guidance is much appreciated. Thanks for taking a look!

KInd regards
Felix Lechner
