Congratulations on being a beta tester. See Gentoo dev list post http://www.gossamer-threads.com/lists/gentoo/dev/251987 | # Pawel Hajdan, Jr. (17 Apr 2012) | # Masked for testing and review. | >=sys-auth/pambase-20120417 | >=sys-apps/shadow-4.1.5-r1 | >=sys-apps/hardened-shadow-0.9-r1 | Please help testing above packages (feel free to skip hardened-shadow | if you're not using it, but I'm pretty sure you have shadow and pambase | on your systems). | Maintainers, please review any changes. I can fix what you don't like | in those updates. -- Walter Dnes <waltd...@waltdnes.org>
