And today, pam and pambase are restored to their earlier versions

did portage want to upgrade pam and pambase on Wednesday?

The sddm ebuild has changed without changing the version

-       pam? ( sys-libs/pam )
+       pam? ( <=sys-libs/pam-1.3.1_p20200128-r1 )

I only got a message about skipping sddm on my world update, so
apparently I'm now running an unsupported pam version. Rebooting
worked just fine though, so what I gain/lose by staying like this is
unknown.

I lost my Plasma auto login. SDDM would just display a black screen at boot rather than log me in automatically.

Fixing it was easy though:

  emerge -a1 =sys-auth/pambase-20200304 =sys-libs/pam-1.3.1_p20200128-r1
