shouldnt be any trouble here that i know of
shadow-4.0.14-r1 and pam-login-4.0.14 stable on ppc64
both stable on amd64
sparc'em.
Skey is installed, but can't seem to get shadow and/or pam-login to build with skey support. emerge -pv shadow pam-login: [ebuild R ] sys-apps/pam-login-4.0.14 USE="selinux skey -livecd -nls" 0 kB [ebuild R ] sys-apps/shadow-4.0.14-r1 USE="pam selinux skey -nls -nousuid" 0 kB But during the config phase I see: shadow will be compiled with the followig feactures: auditing support: yes CrackLib support: yes PAM support: yes SELinux support: yes shadow group support: yes S/Key support: no Am I overlooking something here?
you'll need to post config.log for me to figure out why that failed
configure option is --with-skey (not --with-libskey)
indeed ... seems that option changed somewhere along the line but no one noticed before ... i'll update all the relevant versions, thanks for pointing that out
x86 done \(^.^)/
ppc done.
It seems that on AMD64 there is a problem concerning shadow and pam-login: Calculating world dependencies... done! [blocks B ] sys-apps/pam-login (is blocking sys-apps/shadow-4.0.14-r2) !!! Error: The above package list contains packages which cannot be installed !!! at the same time on the same system. That is on a full ~AMD64 system, with pam-login-4.0.14 installed

It does suggest unemerging both packages and then emerging them both again. How can that help? Won't that simply re-install the two compatible versions I already have installed? Then I'm back in the same boat as I am now. As an aside, I am extremely reluctant to remove something as important as /bin/login or /bin/passwd. Is there a safe workaround?
If you read the changelog, shadow 4.0.14-r2 merges pam-login back inside a single package. So you just have to: emerge -C pam-login emerge -u shadow and you'll have just the same you had before, but with a package less. Full stop.
Alpha stable.
Both stable on mips.
