+libpam-mklocaluser (0.9) UNRELEASED; urgency=low
+
+  * Make PAM module more robust:
+  * Add to /etc/passwd and /etc/shadow using python code instead of
+    calling "echo 'something' >> /etc/file" in a subshell.
+  * Do not try to syslog an exception, as a string is needed in newer
+    python versions.
+  * Do not call chown -R, implement it in python instead.
+  * Correct test pam_handler function arguments and make it output
+    more info during testing.
+  * Make sure syslog message make it clear that both passwd and shadow
+    is updated by the module.
