Description germusic 2003-10-11 14:36:31 UTC 
When not using a distribution from RedHat, it is not clear wich version of PAM must 
be used for a clean compile of sal source code. The source hinted that this tested 
with version 0.66 of PAM as installed with RedHat 6.x (?) As of version 0.72 the 
PAM does have a .configure;make etc. wich will work with any system. But from this 
version on (upto 0.77) the header files are different. Version 0.66 will not install 
cleanly, nor will it copy the wanted header files to the correct destination 
directories. 
 
Solution: 
I copied the header files from libpam/include/security to the /usr/include/security 
directory. After that it wil compile, but i am not sure if the generated code will be 
oke.

Please ensure that you have installed pam-devel.  The version should 
not affect the outcome of the compile, to my knowledge however there 
is a standard place for this header and your system does not appear 
to comply.

Base installation was SuSE 7.2. Headers are in /usr/include/security, but configure 
couldn't find them. Put version 0.66 PAM headers there (including extra headers found) 
and OpenOffice will compile. PAM version 0.72 and up do have different header files so 
OpenOffice (sal module) won't compile with these. Maybe that may be a point to look 
after, otherwise only Redhat users can compile OpenOffice.
