Release 1.5.3

• configure: added options to configure stylesheets.
• configure: added --enable-logind option to use logind instead of utmp in pam_issue and pam_timestamp.
• pam_modutil_getlogin: changed to use getlogin() from libc instead of parsing utmp.
• Added libeconf support to pam_env and pam_shells.
• Added vendor directory support to pam_access, pam_env, pam_group, pam_faillock, pam_limits, pam_namespace, pam_pwhistory, pam_sepermit, pam_shells, and pam_time.
• pam_limits: changed to not fail on missing config files.
• pam_pwhistory: added conf= option to specify config file location.
• pam_pwhistory: added file= option to specify password history file location.
• pam_shells: added shells.d support when libeconf and vendordir are enabled.
• Deprecated pam_lastlog: this module is no longer built by default because it uses utmp, wtmp, btmp and lastlog, but none of them are Y2038 safe, even on 64bit architectures. pam_lastlog will be removed in one of the next releases, consider using pam_lastlog2 (from ​https://github.com/thkukuk/lastlog2) and/or pam_wtmpdb (from ​https://github.com/thkukuk/wtmpdb) instead.
• Deprecated _pam_overwrite(), _pam_overwrite_n(), and _pam_drop_reply() macros provided by _pam_macros.h; the memory override performed by these macros can be optimized out by the compiler and therefore can no longer be relied upon.
• Multiple minor bug fixes, portability fixes, documentation improvements, and translation updates.

I've installed it but I don't think it's related to the recent systemd -ftrivial-auto-var-init=zero issue.

[Tim Tassonis]

I can take this, I would however not check the systemd/elogind stuff.
