As of version 1.1.2-2ubuntu4 in natty, libpam now looks in (and installs
its own modules to) /lib/$(DEB_HOST_MULTIARCH)/security before
/lib/security.  This means that it is now possible to correctly install
32-bit and 64-bit pam modules side-by-side on an Ubuntu system.

Note however that the /lib/$(DEB_HOST_MULTIARCH) path is reserved for
native packages of that architecture; ia32-libs is NOT allowed to
package libpam-modules and ship its contents in /lib/i386-linux-
gnu/security.  Users who need this can:

 - wait for multiarch support to be ready for use,
 - manually copy the 32-bit modules they need from ia32-libs to the 
/lib/i386-linux-gnu/security directory, or
 - continue to use one of the workarounds mentioned in this bug.

** Changed in: pam (Ubuntu)
       Status: Confirmed => Fix Released
