Description Jürn Brodersen univentionstaff 2025-07-31 14:55:24 CEST 
+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #56547 +++

pam_tally is deprecated and has been removed.
We have to replace it with pam_faillock.

We still have a lot of places that contain "faillo*g*" as a string. It would be nice to convert them to "faillo*ck*" to avoid confusion.

Note:
The faillog binary is still part of the "login" package, I guess it got forgotten as well? It has been removed in trixie.
