thx for pointing that out, made pam optional |
The dependency of mc-4.6.0-r11.ebuild on pam should be optional, i.e. in the ebuild change line >=sys-libs/pam-0.72 (in DEPEND) by pam? (>=sys-libs/pam-0.72) (like in mc-4.5.55-r7.ebuild) I'm running a system without pam. I don't like pam, since it was causing a lot of trouble to me with the permissions of the audio devices When a user logs in ( the permissions of that devices change without any reason, and the other user can't use them. I remove pam from my system (USE="-pam") and all this mess disapears. The Midnight commander does not really depend on pam, as I was able to compile it without it!
