Bug 750524 – sys-auth/pambase-20201020: pam.d/system-auth has pam_libcap.so but sys-libs/libcap +pam provides pam_cap.so

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Bernd Feige 2020-10-21 07:39:54 UTC]

For some time now, sys-auth/pambase installs a pam.d/system-auth file containing the line
-session        optional        pam_libcap.so

However, the pam file installed by sys-libs/libcap +pam is called pam_cap.so, not pam_libcap.so. Could you please check?

Reproducible: Always
