That needs a backport of pam because of recent changes in the pam
source package....or a change in libpam-smbpass for backports.org to
drop support for newly introduced in suqeeze "pam-auth-update".

I'm afraid that neither of those will happen...unless Steve os OK to
backport pam.

Hmm ; are backports.org backports really meant to be tracked through
the main Debian BTS. I doubt that.

I'm tempted to close this bug report, though it's good to know that
libpam-smbpass from bacports.org is not usable....
