Description: # Pamela: yet another Python wrapper for PAM
        
        There seems to be a glut of Python wrappers for PAM that have since been abandoned.
        This repo merges two separate efforts:
        
        - [gnosek/python-pam](https://github.com/gnosek/python-pam)
          - adds wrappers for a few more calls, e.g. opening sessions
          - raises PamError on failure instead of returning False, with informative error messages
        - [simplepam](https://github.com/leonnnn/python3-simplepam)
          - adds Python 3 support
          - resets credentials after authentication, apparently for kerberos users
        
        ## Why?
        
        Both projects appear to be abandoned, with no response to issues or pull requests in at least a year, and I need it for [JupyterHub](https://github.com/jupyter/jupyterhub).
        
        ## Use it
        
        Install:
        
            pip install pamela
        
        Test:
        
            python -m pamela -a `whoami`
