Description

This is perhaps more a question although maybe it's better that the documentation be updated.
I am trying to use fscrypt on Fedora and since there are no packages available I compiled it from sources.
I managed to make it work with pass phrase protector, but login protector doesn't work.
Documentation says to add pam_fscrypt.so lines to /etc/pam.d/common-auth and /etc/pam.d/common-session
Both files don't exist, here's the listing of /etc/pam.d

config-util gdm-password password-auth smartcard-auth system-auth
cups gdm-pin polkit-1 sshd systemd-user
fingerprint-auth gdm-smartcard postlogin sssd-shadowutils vlock
fscrypt liveinst ppp su vmtoolsd
gdm-autologin login remote sudo xserver
gdm-fingerprint other runuser sudo-i
gdm-launch-environment passwd runuser-l su-l

I already tried to add the lines to gdm-password, login, passwd, password-auth, system-auth but none of them worked. Also, I don't see any errors in the logs. It's as if the lines get ignored.
Any help would be appreciated.
