Hi Richard,

Thanks for reporting and tracking down the fix.
Do I understand correctly that the fix is confirmed to resolve the
issue for you?

Now, /etc/pam.d/netatalk is obviously a generated file, so for a
persistent fix the file that needs to change is macros/pam-check.m4
I think this should ideally be fixed upstream, so if you have a moment
to spare it'd be helpful if you filed an issue ticket at
https://github.com/Netatalk/netatalk/issues

Best,
Daniel
