PAM unable to dlopen(pam_mysql.so): /lib/security/pam_mysql.so: undefined symbol: make_scrambled_password I fixed this issue by download the source for the package and applying the patches that come from this source RPM: http://dinofly.com/files/linux/pam_mysql-0.7-0.20.rc1.fc23.src.rpm I then created unofficial packages after applying the patch.
