$summary Although having several configure switches [--with(out)-pam, --with(out)-pam_smbpass, --with-pammodulesdir=PATH], samba always links to libpam.so when being found in the build system. Most likely an upstream issue. I filed this bug merely to keep track of any progress and to reference the sys-libs/pam hard dependency I gonna add to our samba-4 ebuilds.
Can help to double check in the new git version? found that pam disable was working. But there are pam check from other module... Not sure if this was by other module.
Sorry to ask but any advise on how can I verify that? If I can help.

I just compiled 4.1.4 on my server without libpam.so, after I removed every pam related stuff from the ebuild. Builds fine, runs fine. Why can't we leave it at the users discretion, wether he wants pam or not, as it was before?
About one year later, nothing changed. Everytime I upgrade, I modify the ebuild and remove all the pam enforcement and it still builds and runs completely fine. If no PAM is on the system, Samba4 still works. Even as ADS. I am using it this way since early alpha versions. Please remove the PAM nonsense.

Samba upstream having this kind of dependencies is nonsense.

samba-4.2.9 has hit stable. It appears this ebuild demands to pull in pam even if the pam USE flag is disabled. Apparently the conditional "pam? ( virtual/pam )" of CDEPEND within the old samba-4.2.7 ebuild seems to have become a mandatory "virtual/pam" hard dependency in this samba-4.2.9 ebuild, despite the fact that samba-4.2.7-pam.patch is still being applied. If the pam patch is still applied, is the hard "virtual/pam" dependency a mistake?
