>Description:
Hi after port upgrading pam_pwdfile-0.95_1 to pam_pwdfile-0.99, VSFTPD server can't login ftp users, there is no error in the logs except this one:

Oct 13 15:50:33 ftp vsftpd: in openpam_load_module(): no /usr/local/lib/pam_pwdfile.so found

But if I do a ls -l /usr/local/lib/pam_pwdfile.so the file is there:
-r--r--r--  1 root  wheel  6652 Oct 13 17:30 /usr/local/lib/pam_pwdfile.so

The temporary solution is to downgrade to pam_pwdfile-0.95_1 and everything works again.
>How-To-Repeat:
Install VSFPTD and pam_pwdfile-0.99

Configure VSFTPD to use virtual users.
>Fix:
No fix only temporary workaround.

Downgrade to pam_pwdfile-0.95_1
