Hello, Thanks for the invitation for working on apt ;-> But i was just saying that i try to understand the problem and find the solution. After all, i had to dig a bit but i find a solution... I really don't want to argue on the need of working on apt or not. It is just a bug report ( but i don't know if i need to fill a bug against pam or pat now ). Kind regard Sylvain LE GALL
