Bug description:
  In Ubuntu 16.04, the libpam-mysql package does not work.  It crashes
  with the below error:

  PAM unable to dlopen(pam_mysql.so): /lib/security/pam_mysql.so:
  undefined symbol: make_scrambled_password

  I fixed this issue by download the source for the package and applying
  the patches that come from this source RPM:

  http://dinofly.com/files/linux/pam_mysql-0.7-0.20.rc1.fc23.src.rpm

  I then created unofficial packages after applying the patch.  They can
  be downloaded here:

  http://www.dinofly.com/files/linux/libpam-mysql_0.7~RC1-4ubuntu3_amd64.deb
  http://www.dinofly.com/files/linux/libpam-mysql_0.7~RC1-4ubuntu3_i386.deb

  libpam-mysql now works again on Ubuntu 16.04 x86 and x64.
