4596	Removing /etc/pam.d after Linux-Pam tests is hazardous	Pierre Labastie	Pierre Labastie	"The instructions of the current Linux-Pam page have that:
{{{
rm -rfv /etc/pam.d
}}}
after the test. This is very dangerous if ''shadow'' has already been compiled with PAM support, because you cannot ''login'' nor ''su'' anymore, so it is very likely that you get locked out of your system.

The only solution in this case is to recreate the /etc/pam.d files from a rescue system."	defect	closed	normal		BOOK	SVN	medium	fixed
