1 Hi group,
2
3 The gentoo pam-0.99 update guide says something like
4 "it's safe to remove /etc/pam.d/*". It should say "you
5 _must_ remove /etc/pam.d/*". So that hurdle was
6 cleared
7
8 emerge -uD world continued then this:
9 <...>
10 groupadd: PAM authentication failed
11 *
12 * ERROR: net-analyzer/tcpdump-3.9.8 failed.
13 * Call stack:

18 * tcpdump-3.9.8.ebuild, line 67: Called
19 enewgroup 'tcpdump'
20 * eutils.eclass, line 707: Called die
21 * The specific snippet of code:
22 * groupadd ${opts} ${egroup} || die
23 "enewgroup failed"
24 * The die message:
25 * enewgroup failed
26 *
27 * If you need support, post the topmost build error,
28 and the call stack if relevant.
29 * A complete build log is located at
30 '/var/log/portage/net-analyzer:tcpdump-3.9.8:20080130-072451.log'.
31 *
32 !!! FAILED preinst: 1

34 google was not forthcoming. I added
35 'net-analyzer/tcpdump ~x86' to package.keywords but
36 that didn't help.

38 Any ideas?
