pam-face-authentication - issue #99

Typo in Ubuntu uninstallation instructions


Posted on Jun 28, 2011 by Helpful Ox

At [1] you are told to create the file /usr/share/pam-configs/face_authentication, however, in the uninstallation instructions the file /usr/share/pam-configs/face-authentication is removed (i.e. the underscore is replaced by a dash).

try this:

alt + f2, alacarte add the name and the command (locate face-trainer first)

if you remove PAM the apps hide automatically or you can delete it from alacarte ;)

for remove PAM totally:

sudo gedit /etc/pam.d/gdm

and remove auth sufficient pam_face_authentication.so enableX

and purge the app :(

sudo apt-get --purge remove pam-face-authentication

if you want remove the ppa:

sudo apt-get install ppa-purge

sudo ppa-purge ppa:antonio.chiurazzi/ppa

I don't really get your comment... The uninstallation instructions on the website are fine, they just need to replace the dash by an underscore.
