1 In bug 524074 (https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=524074), Joshua
2 Kinard mentioned that Gentoo cannot support systems where PAM isn't
3 installed. I'd like to know whether this is true or not, especially
4 since no part of the system seems to actually require it. It is there if
5 you need it. I don't have a use for it, personally.

7 (The issue at hand is that sudo links against -lshadow, which should not
8 happen and therefore that link command removed from the build.)
