44 I'm getting a weird error while trying to compile pam:
45
46 * ERROR: sys-libs/pam-1.1.6-r2 failed (configure phase):
47 * USE Flag 'hppa' not in IUSE for sys-libs/pam-1.1.6-r2
48 *
49 * Call stack:
50 * ebuild.sh, line 93: Called src_configure
51 * environment, line 3550: Called use 'hppa'
52 * phase-helpers.sh, line 219: Called die
53 * The specific snippet of code:
54 * die "USE Flag '${u}' not in IUSE for
55 ${CATEGORY}/${PF}"
56
57 How to fix this?
