These packages were successfully installed: $ paco -dd openssl gnutls sudo Linux-PAM | sort 07-Jan-2012 00:35 openssl-1.0.0f 07-Jan-2012 20:55 gnutls-3.0.10 09-Jan-2012 13:34 Linux-PAM-1.1.5 09-Jan-2012 15:14 sudo-1.8.3p1 Three of them are more recent than the book's ones, however, Linux-PAM-1.1.5 cannot be installed by the book, without modification, as has been already discussed in blfs-support. I did not remember exactly the posts, thus, by trial and error, changing .config parameters, I finally arrived to: ./configure --sbindir=/lib/security \ --docdir=/usr/share/doc/Linux-PAM-1.1.5 --with-gnu-ld \ --enable-read-both-confs --enable-shared --disable-static \ --disable-nis While "--enable-shared --disable-static" where not essential, make failed without "--disable-nis". I did not wish to install libtirpc just for that. I would like to know if the choice "--enable-shared --disable-static" is safe, and what are the consequences of "--disable-nis". Following the installation of Linux-PAM-1.1.5, I searched the web and found the post by Andrew (Andy) Benton from Thu, Nov 17, 2011 at 11:01 AM to blfs-support. Perhaps the page could be modified, changing the .config parameters, or introducing libtirpc as dependency, or just making some comments about them, I do not know, but some change would be much helpful.
