Description Stephen Bennett (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2006-11-24 05:24:37 UTC 
Nov 24 09:49:12 blashyrk login[11327]: PAM unable to dlopen(/lib64/security/pam_selinux.so)
Nov 24 09:49:12 blashyrk login[11327]: PAM [error: /lib64/security/pam_selinux.so: undefined symbol: setfilecon]

The symbol in question is in -lselinux. pam_selinux's generated Makefile has -lselinux in AM_LDFLAGS; I can't see any other reference to it in that directory.

Linux-PAM-0.99.6.3-selinux.patch

Can someone with selinux enabled get a try to this patch?
The problem is that upstream used a funky way to link the libraries (LDFLAGS is wrong for that), and with automake 1.10 that also changed meaning.
Comment 2 Diego Elio Pettenò (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2006-11-24 06:11:37 UTC 
Fixed as of 0.99.6.3-r2, thanks for reporting.
