Title:
  Change-password-after-login is broken

Status in Light Display Manager:
  Fix Released
Status in “lightdm” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  This is related to bug 838555.  After running the following:

  dbus-send --print-reply --system --dest=org.freedesktop.Accounts
  /org/freedesktop/Accounts/User1000
  org.freedesktop.Accounts.User.SetPasswordMode int32:1

  You can log into a VT and see the prompts to set the new password.
  But try it in unity-greeter and you get an authentication error.

  This is because lightdm never sets the PAM_TTY pam item.  Pam bails
  because there is no TTY to ask.

  Branch coming.
