Bug 298539 – sys-auth/tcb broken pam_tcb.so

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Paweł Hajdan, Jr. (RETIRED) 2009-12-27 15:00:51 UTC]

When trying to use the module, I get the following output in the logs:

Dec 27 15:57:02 localhost su[1634]: PAM unable to dlopen(/lib/security/pam_tcb.so): /lib/security/pam_tcb.so: undefined symbol: crypt_ra
Dec 27 15:57:02 localhost su[1634]: PAM adding faulty module: /lib/security/pam_tcb.so
Dec 27 15:57:02 localhost su[1634]: pam_authenticate: Module is unknown

Steps to repro:
1. emerge sys-apps/tcb-1.0-r1 with USE="pam"
2. Replace pam_unix.so with pam_tcb.so in /etc/pam.d/system-auth
3. Try to use su from regular user previously able to use su

Expected result: su works
Actual result: su doesn't work, pam_tcb.so cannot be loaded

Attached patches make sys-auth/tcb link correctly with xcrypt which provides needed functions for it.

Fixed in CVS.
