The change has to be done on the glibc side, but has to be agreed and 
coordinated with the other packages using the template. Otherwise 
replacing the template by a positive one will just make the other 
packages failing to configure.

Unfortunately I haven't received any feedback from pam, and, until today, 
from openssl.

An alternative would be to do the change in glibc, while keeping the old 
template, but that would mean the users will get prompted twice, once 
negatively and once positively, and that glibc will still has to 
maintain the translation for a template it doesn't use.

Ok, thanks for the update. From a quick look, it seems to have happened 
between bullseye and bookworm. At least there is some progress.
