Hi again
On my full lfs 8.0 rebuild, I have built shadow 4.4 as specified on
the lfs page, however I did it the "blfs way" of first installing pam.
When building shadow, I got the following error:
su.c:376:3: error: too few arguments to function 'snprintf'
snprintf (kill_msg, _(" ...killed.\n"));
^~~~~~~~
In blfs, there is following sed to prevent this:
sed -i -e '/snprintf/s@_msg,@_msg, 256,@' src/su.c &&
Is this error only happening due to pam being used or should this sed
be included in the plain lfs instructions of shadow as well?
Cheers

Hi Tim,
If you look at the "Command Explanations" section of the Shadow-4.4
page, you'll see:
*sed -i -e '/snprintf/s@_msg,@_msg, 256,@' src/su.c*: Fix a build error
that only occurs if Linux-PAM-1.3.0
<http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/view/stable/postlfs/linux-pam.html>
is detected by *configure*.
So it's only if PAM is installed that the sed command required.
Also, you shouldn't deviate from the LFS build order - it'll only get
you in trouble ;)
Best regards
Michael
