Bug#924123: shishi: FTBFS with pam >= 1.3 (was: with gcc 8.3)


From: Bernhard R. Link
Subject: Bug#924123: shishi: FTBFS with pam >= 1.3 (was: with gcc 8.3)
Date: Sun, 31 Mar 2019 23:27:47 +0200
User-agent: Mutt/1.10.1 (2018-07-13)

Control: retitle -1 shishi: FTBFS with pam >= 1.3

Just some litte fly-by comment looking over RC bugs affecting testing:

I can also reproduce the FTBFS in an unstable chroot (so nothing testing
specific with that build failure).

The log is not really helpful here, as libtool only prints stderr of the
-DPIC compilation, but hides stderr of the non-PIC compilation, while
only the non-PIC compilation fails (the PIC case only produces harmless
warnings).

Unhiding the output of that gcc run gives the following result:

Looking at the sourcecode of the pam sourcepackage, it seems like suppor
for PAM_STATIC was removed with pam upstream 1.3.0, which hit Debian
with 1.3.1-3 uploaded 2019-02-12.

Taking a look at other pam_modules, they do not define PAM_STATIC
themself under any circumstances but only check it,
while extra/pam_shishi/pam_shishi.c contains:

| #ifndef PIC
| #define PAM_STATIC
| #endif

Looking around at some old pam documentation, my guess is that
PAM_STATIC is only to be used if modules are to be linked into libpam
directly. So I think those three lines above are in error and without
them this build failure might also be fixed.

@vorlon: could you take a look if my understanding of PAM_STATIC is
correct and it is nothing that should be defined if compiled as
an pam module outside of the pam source tree?
