/etc/pam.d/ly not included in PKGBUILD, breaking user-made changes with updates

I am opening the issue for u/amgdev9's post on Reddit.

Description:

As mentioned in #1 (closed) too, /etc/pam.d/ly is not included in the backup= array in PKGBUILD. This causes the config file to be replaced during updates to ly and without warning; making user-made changes not persist.

In this specific case, it breaks auto-unlocking using kwallet.

Including the file in the backup= array would allow a .pacnew file to be created, preventing this issue and still letting the user know that there is a change to the /etc/pam.d/ly file.

Additional info:

• Package: ly 1.0.3-1
• Related file: /etc/pam.d/ly

added priority3-normal severity4-low statusunconfirmed labels

changed the description

Thanks for the report. Another option is to maybe stick the PAM file into the "vendor" dir /usr/lib/pam.d?

added scopeenhancement statusconfirmed labels and removed statusunconfirmed label
