Hello,
Please mark stable.
Thanks!
How do you test this? Examples are not helpful, no tests provided, and it
can't load anything (for me) from sys-auth/pam_pkcs11, engine_pkcs11,
pkcs11-helper, itself, ... and gnupg-pkcs11-scd has no sparc keyword. It
builds and does not abort on the examples, but? (home page is not helpful.)
By the way,
pkg-config --libs libp11
-lp11
(correct)
polylepis examples # pkg-config --cflags libp11
polylepis examples #
(wrong! I hope. It build with correct CFLAGS, but a user relying on what
pkg-config reports will not be happy.)
No sparc for now --- not enough information to get a clue whether it works or
not.
Ferris, you can check it using pam_p11 as it has libp11 in depend.

I'm very slow today, I guess, Every example I can find wants me to use this
module: /usr/lib/opensc-pkcs11.so, but I have no file opensc-pkcs11.so
anywhere at all on the system. And nothing I try will do anything without that
module or its equivalent someplace. (libp11 itself has a few examples, all of
which need that module, and the URL to opensc-project.org has examples assuming
that module is lying around someplace. But it isn't.)
Do you have any PKCS#11 provider on your system? The opensc-pkcs11.so is only a
default.
If you use engine_pkcs11 you can use MODULE_PATH:/usr/lib/XXX to override.
If you use pam_p11 you can use auth required pam_p11_opensc.so
/usr/lib/XXX to override.
The whole point of PKCS#11 is that it is as well-known interface that allows
you to use different modules.

OK, I have:
dev-libs/libp11-0.2.3
dev-libs/engine_pkcs11-0.1.4
pam_pkcs11-0.6.0
installed.
Now, none of these supplies anything that can be used as a module. What does,
and what would it be called? So far, I can't test this at all.
I guess you don't have smartcard on your disposal... You cannot test this
without smartcard... :)
this was stabilized on a lot of arches without it being tested, so ia64/sparc
stable. Alpha doesn't have it stable
