>Description:


Currently x11/xscreensaver is compiled with out PAM support. This is a PITA for those of us who use LDAP or whatever for authentication and user/group stuff.


>How-To-Repeat:


1: Run xscreensaver using a LDAP user.
2:
3: Unleash the AAA upon the incoming flying monkies.
4: xscreensaver: couldn't get password of "<username of the user it is being ran under>"
    xscreensaver: 13:54:14: locking is disabled (error getting password).
5: Apply patch and reinstall.
6: Run it and notice that step 4 nolonger happens.
7: Laugh manically.
