WARNING: When upgrading a system using pam-selinux, it is recommended to keep a root shell open in a different session/terminal to fix issues, as the authentication system could break when a dependency is updated. For example when libnsl 2.0.0 was released, /usr/lib/security/pam_unix.so could no longer be loaded and pam-selinux needed to be rebuilt/updated in order to fix the authentication system.

Failing to build with mold, could you convert the fixes in https://github.com/linux-pam/linux-pam/issues/922 to a suitable patch for the current checkout?

Note that if you have ls overriden with eg a shell script in your path (which I do, so I can use exa instead) this will cause the following error:

configure: error: newly created file is older than distributed files!

To fix it, simply remove the nonstandard ls from your path.

Hi, after install this update I can't get login in system. I'm tried with Arch-Chroot but when I try "su user" the terminal shows "No modules". Can't rebuild it because makepkg don't work as root.

Any solution how to fix it. I read this warning to late.

libnsl got updated, so this package has to be recompiled. Otherwise you may not be able to login due to PAM errors.

yar: there was indeed a bug in the PKGBUILD of pam-selinux. I probably fixed it in https://aur.archlinux.org/cgit/aur.git/commit/?h=pam-selinux&id=b156403746cf6d81e6737e8151faecaea7d0c627 and now pam-selinux package declares that it provides libpam.so=0-64. Does it fix your issue?

resolving dependencies...
looking for conflicting packages...
warning: removing 'pam' from target list because it conflicts with 'pam-selinux'
error: failed to prepare transaction (could not satisfy dependencies)
:: unable to satisfy dependency 'libpam.so=0-64' required by xscreensaver

This seems to conflict with xscreensaver now that they depend on libpam.so https://github.com/archlinux/svntogit-packages/commit/99c589cbcf3a1527a6751cf0d8ef2f298a036896

I'm not sure how to resolve this.
