You only had to unmerge pam-login and update shadow. The functionality
of pam-login is now provided by shadow, so that the former is no longer

Hint: Don't logout between the unmerge and the update, or you'll be
locked out.

Hint 2: This question has been asked (and answered) several times on
this mailing list and in the forums. Please search the archives before
