Re: darwin-development digest, Vol 3 #574 - 10 msgs

We had to change it to /usr/include/pam for the simple reason that if you include <Security/foo.h> you get something from Security Frameworks instead (and Security and security get folded into the same directory name by HFS+ case insensitivity). This change wasn't made gratuitously, it was made simply because we had to.

<My $.02> I did not file the bug report about PAM's {include,lib} location because I think the name "security" is in anyway better than "pam". Neither did I file it because I can't/won't port my code to support the new location (I already have). I filed the bug because the world needs another vendor doing things "different" like I need a call from the IRS. This is about portability and compliance to standards, be they IETF or de facto.
Right now PAM isn't that tightly integrated so moving the PAM stuff shouldn't be that great a burden, IMHO.
