Needed by gdm-3.10, ok with CCing arches?

I think we discussed this in the past (bug#488784)... it is not possible that gdb requires specific pam.

Unless this vertical of systemd also implies we add even more verticals to gnome operating system.

this pam_pkcs11 was never stable and is not at quality that I want to see stable, it is mainly unmaintained.

Will CC the rest of the team as maybe Gilles knows why this was added again in 3.10 for "smartcard" support
