I know that Pat Volkerding didn't include PAM back in the day when it was considered by some to be messy or inconsistent, although that doesn't really seem to be the case today with PAM being standardized accross distributions.What are the reasons for Slackware not including PAM in recent versions of Slackware?Are there any other distributions that abstain from incorporating PAM?
What are the reasons Slackware still refuses to include PAM?
