As of pam 1.5.3, lastlog is considered deprecated (see also #267447 and #281182).

PR #282337 attempted to make this switch, but was ultimately closed as lastlog2 was being integrated into util-linux. Our util-linux is now at version 2.41, and the lastlog deprecation resurfaced in #418255 (comment).

We should consider doing this switch, potentially using the old PR as a base (but using util-linux package instead of a dedicated lastlog2 package).
