Orca update broke /etc/pam.d/common-auth making logging in impossible

[Lukasz Olszewski]

After todays update of Orca to version 3.1.91-0ubuntu3 my /etc/pam.d/common-auth file was overwritten with the following line:
../../../../../../../share/pyshared/orca/scripts/apps/packagemanager/tutorialgenerator.py

This made logging in to the system impossible.

Workaround:
Boot in recovery mode and run pam-auth-update as root.

I'm marking it as security vulnerability as this update altered conf file with authentication settings used by all services.
