I aslo noticed this alarming issue on my system when doing: apt-get install libpam-umask
If it wants to remove almost all my system see http://pastebin.ca/1201680

dpkg -S pam_umask.so
libpam-modules: /lib/security/pam_umask.so

so the libpam-umask should be removed from the repo as soon as possible but the documentation must be added to libpam-modules.

These bugs can waste time of lots of people

offtopic question: in theory a ubuntu linux system should run fine with umask 0077 for all users, correct?
