pam_panic

Table of Contents

Arch Linux

There's a rolling AUR package called pam_panic-git and for tagged versions called pam_panic.

There's a PPA. To install the package using the PPA:

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:bandie/pampanic
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install pampanic

You will need GCC or similar, as well as the PAM headers. Some distributions package the PAM headers as libpam0g-dev. Also you need po4a and gettext.

To compile and install it, do the following within the project's root directory:

$ [ ! -e ./configure ] && autoreconf -i
$ ./configure
$ make
$ sudo make install

Note: the paths of the reboot, poweroff, and cryptsetup commands are passed to the module at compile-time.
