reassign 150186 libpam-modules
found 150186 0.76-22
close 150186 0.79-3
thanks

A little more detective work, and I've found that this bug is actually
in libpam-modules, not in passwd.  Since passwd itself doesn't know
anything about NIS, it's sufficient to run it with a passwd file having
the line "+::::::" at the end.  The results:

In a sid chroot:
libpam-modules from sarge, libpam0g and passwd from sid ==> bug
libpam-modules from sid, libpam0g and passwd from sarge ==> no bug
libpam-modules, libpam0g and passwd from sid ==> no bug

On a sarge machine:
passwd from sid (recompiled against sarge), libpam-modules and libpam0g
from sarge ==> bug

So thankfully this bug has been FIXED in or before the latest version of
libpam-modules in sid.  I am accordingly finally reassigning to the
right package and then closing it.

Thanks to all.
