Description : Authselect is designed to be a replacement for authconfig but it takes
: a different approach to configure the system. Instead of letting
: the administrator build the PAM stack with a tool (which may potentially
: end up with a broken configuration), it would ship several tested stacks
: (profiles) that solve a use-case and are well tested and supported.
: At the same time, some obsolete features of authconfig are not
: supported by authselect.
