Although I don't believe this is part of the formal packaging guidelines, the
PAM config file that is included for the console-helper magic does not follow
the standard used by other console-helper enabled apps.

eg, xenman RPM installs a file containing

# cat /etc/pam.d/xenman
#%PAM-1.0                                            
auth       sufficient   pam_rootok.so                      
auth       sufficient   pam_timestamp.so                     
auth       include      system-auth   
session    required     pam_permit.so                         
session    optional     pam_xauth.so                            
session    optional     pam_timestamp.so                   
account    required     pam_permit.so

While other apps typically delegate the config:

# cat /etc/pam.d/system-config-network
#%PAM-1.0
auth            include         config-util
account         include         config-util
session         include         config-util

The latter config makes it easy to manage all the apps' PAM configs in one place.

The app appears configured in /etc/xenman.conf to write to /var/log/xenman, but
the RPM does not create this directory. I don't know if the application takes
care of rotatings log files itself, but if not it installing a config into
/etc/logrotate.d would be desirable.
