Thanks, Chris. And gladly, I managed to get PAM and Shadow updated
in the Development book. Though the Shadow version is updated from
LFS, it is only security bug fixes, so I felt I had to update the
version.

Typically, LFS and BLFS versions of matching packages will be the same
version, however, in this case BLFS is more recent but will work just
fine.
