$ uname -a
Linux VMWLFS70 3.2.0 #1 SMP Sun Jan 8 22:25:33 BRT 2012 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux

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.

Thanks in advance.

Fernando
