[Pkg-auth-maintainers] Bug#772810: libpam-yubico: dpkg-reconfigure -plow libpam-yubico fails due to parameter escaping

[Johann Hartwig Hauschild]

Package: libpam-yubico
Version: 2.12-1
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,
*** Please consider answering these questions, where appropriate ***

   * What led up to the situation?
   
   + I need libpam-yubico-based authentication with my own auth-servers

   * What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or
     ineffective)?
   
   + running dpkg-reconfigure -plow libpam-yubico and entering parameters
     (mode=client try_first_pass id=myid key=mykey url=http://server:port/wsapi/2.0/verify?id=%d&otp=%s) 
     as per documentation
   
   
   * What was the outcome of this action?

   + for stable:
    # dpkg-reconfigure -plow libpam-yubico
    sed: -e expression #1, char 75: unknown option to `s'

   + for testing: (libpam-yubico 2.17-2)
    # grep yubico /etc/pam.d/common-auth
    auth	required	pam_yubico.so mode=client try_first_pass id=myid key=mykey url=http://server:port/wsapi/2.0/verify?id=%d#DEBCONF_REPLACEotp=%s

   * What outcome did you expect instead?

   + I expected the parameters to be set exactly the way I specified them

I reported this bug against stable, please note that this applies to testing
as well.
