There seems to be a bug in the configure script for the sys-apps/kbd. pam flag passes a --enabled-vlock or --disable-vlock option, but both result in a vlock not being built. A vlock is only built if both options are omitted. ./configure --enable-vlock ... kbd 2.0.4 ====== prefix: /usr/local libdir: ${exec_prefix}/lib bindir: ${exec_prefix}/bin datadir: ${datarootdir} compiler: gcc cflags: -g -O2 -Wall -Wextra -Wmissing-noreturn -Wdisabled-optimization -Wcast-align -Wshadow -Wmissing-format-attribute -Wmissing-prototypes -Wstrict-prototypes -Wmissing-declarations {get,set}keycodes: yes resizecons: yes optional progs: no vlock: no libkeymap: no ./configure --disable-vlock ... kbd 2.0.4 ====== prefix: /usr/local libdir: ${exec_prefix}/lib bindir: ${exec_prefix}/bin datadir: ${datarootdir} compiler: gcc cflags: -g -O2 -Wall -Wextra -Wmissing-noreturn -Wdisabled-optimization -Wcast-align -Wshadow -Wmissing-format-attribute -Wmissing-prototypes -Wstrict-prototypes -Wmissing-declarations {get,set}keycodes: yes resizecons: yes optional progs: no vlock: no libkeymap: no ./configure ... kbd 2.0.4 ====== prefix: /usr/local libdir: ${exec_prefix}/lib bindir: ${exec_prefix}/bin datadir: ${datarootdir} compiler: gcc cflags: -g -O2 -Wall -Wextra -Wmissing-noreturn -Wdisabled-optimization -Wcast-align -Wshadow -Wmissing-format-attribute -Wmissing-prototypes -Wstrict-prototypes -Wmissing-declarations {get,set}keycodes: yes resizecons: yes optional progs: no vlock: yes libkeymap: no
Created attachment 540162 [details, diff] Patch to fix ebuild pam flag Use a usex helper to pass --disable-vlock when pam flag is set and pass nothing if unset.
Also, because vlock is provided separately by app-misc/vlock package, should kbd conflict when pam flag is enabled? Or, perhaps, it is good idea to drop pam flag for kbd altogether since it is currently broken and does nothing?
Your patch only works around the symptoms. A patch fixing configure would be much better.

@Lars Wendler good idea, thank you. Patch attached.
Thanks! I've sent your patch to upstream.
