Yes, this problem only occurs because the submitter has references to the
obsolete pam_tally module in their config and PAM blocks the upgrade to
prevent the user from having a broken config after upgrade (and potentially
be locked out of administering the system to fix it). It will not happen on
a system with a stock config.
It is unfortunately not safe for us to automatically edit the configs to
remove references to pam_tally on upgrade, as this may also result in an
admin lock-out.
