The login package for trixie is missing the pam configuration file
/etc/pam.d/remote:

$ dpkg -L login | grep pam.d
/etc/pam.d
/etc/pam.d/login

This causes issues for some software in rendering the dynamic motd:

I see this bug (#1103923) was fixed for unstable in util-linux
2.41.1-2, however the fix never made it into trixie.

Would it be possible to backport this fix from unstable into trixie?

Thanks,
Brad
