pam_gdm: bail if more than one password (2.09 KB, patch)

Description Ray Strode [halfline] 2018-01-08 18:52:52 UTC 
it's possible for different disks to have different encryption passwords
at startup.

In that case, we won't know which one to use, so bail.

When you say it will "bail", what exactly won't happen?

* will autologin still happen? (I'm guessing yes)
* will the login keyring be unlocked? (I'm guessing no)
* will the keyring password be changed after I manually unlock it? (I'm guessing no)
Comment 4 Ray Strode [halfline] 2018-01-09 14:05:15 UTC 
correct on all counts.
