    I just have a setuid root sudo binary (compiled from sudo-touchid: https://github.com/mattrajca/sudo-touchid) in my home folder ~/bin. This has worked a treat across OS updates, without hacking PAM stuff. It’s extremely convenient and has probably saved me cumulative hours in typing out my long password :)
