33 The linux profiles pull in USE=pam. You should be able to safely set
34 USE=-pam. I'm in the process of testing and masking this flag because
35 pam auth won't work in Gentoo Prefix anyway. You want one auth system,
36 the host system or prefix and it doesn't make any sense to *not* use
37 the host system. (similar to glibc itself).
