.Configure `pam_pwhistory` using a configuration file
With this update, you can configure the `pam_pwhistory` module in the `/etc/security/pwhistory.conf` configuration file. The `pam_pwhistory` module saves the last password for each user in order to manage password change history. Support has also been added in `authselect` which allows you to add the `pam_pwhistory` module to the PAM stack.

Hi Iker, Does this need to be added to the 9.2 beta release notes? If so, could you provide some text in the format: Feature: Reason: Result: Many thanks Feature: Enable pam_pwhistory from a configuration file. By default this file is /etc/security/pwhistory.conf. Reason: Facilitating system configuration via authselect. Result: Our customers can use authselect to configure pam_pwhistory in the PAM stack, and in turn, the can configure pam_pwhistory with its own file.
