1 I'm getting an error when update world tries to install sys-libs/pam
2 that tell me this:
3
4 >>> Merging sys-libs/pam-0.99.8.1-r1 to /
5 *
6 * Your current setup is using one or more of the following modules,
7 * that are not built or supported anymore:
8 * pam_pwdb, pam_radius, pam_timestamp
9 * If you are in real need for these modules, please contact the maintainers
10 * of PAM through http://bugs.gentoo.org/ providing information about its
11 * use cases.
12 *
13 * ERROR: sys-libs/pam-0.99.8.1-r1 failed.
14 * Call stack:
15 * ebuild.sh, line 1703: Called dyn_preinst
16 * ebuild.sh, line 1142: Called pkg_preinst
17 * pam-0.99.8.1-r1.ebuild, line 162: Called die
18 * The specific snippet of code:
19 * check_old_modules || die "deprecated PAM modules still used"
20 * The die message:
21 * deprecated PAM modules still used

24 Apparently I need to remove one or more of those listed but having a
25 time finding them.
26
27 equery files pam turns up nothing with those names
28 equery list|grep shows no promising hits on pwdb, radius or timestamp
29
30 I did find a pwdb package but it shows no hits on those names either.
31
32 How might I track this down? Or is the error really about something
33 else?
