domain and search are mutually exclusive!

and from where does my machine get its domain name? It is only contained in 
resolv.conf.

urmel ~ # hostname
urmel
urmel ~ # dnsdomainname

I have  the same problem in the same environment.  The emerge of 
openssh-4.2_p1 fails with the same error message and yes,libpam is installed. 
If I emerge with "-pam" the installation fails with some other library 
missing, which is installed too.

This information seems to be outdated. My root passwort in /etc/shadow 
consists of more then 30 characters and also contains other characters then 
those in the 64 character set mentioned.

from "emerge --help config":

In addition to protecting overwritten files, Portage will not delete any files
from a protected directory when a package is unmerged.  While this may be a
little bit untidy, it does prevent potentially valuable config files from 
being deleted, which is of paramount importance.
