Re: [Pam-developers] [PATCH] pam_mkhomedir: check and create home directory for the same user (ticket #22)

Before pam_mkhomedir helper was introduced in commit 7b14630ef39e71f603aeca0c47edf2f384717176, pam_mkhomedir was checking for existance and creating the same directory - the home directory of the user NAME returned by pam_get_item(PAM_USER). The change in behaviour accidentally introduced along with mkhomedir_helper is not consistent: while the module still checks for getpwnam(NAME)->pw_dir, the directory created by mkhomedir_helper is getpwnam(getpwnam(NAME)->pw_name)->pw_dir, which is not necessarily the same as the directory being checked. This change brings check and creation back in sync, both handling getpwnam(NAME)->pw_dir.
