Created attachment 273559 [details] build.log for kdm-4.6.2 kdm-4.6.2 installation fails due to old version of shadow(4.0.18.2). Maybe a dependency of shadow should be introduced. The error message generated is: <<<<<<<<<< Adding group 'kdm' to your system ... Groupid: next available groupadd: invalid option -- 'r' >>>>>>>>> Attached the build.log failure and the version of shadow I had.
Created attachment 273561 [details] eix shadow
This is not a kdm problem but a more generic one (the parameters are set afaik in the eutils eclass).
