+ AUTHOR: adamw@FreeBSD.org
+
+ If you installed libgnomesu the day it was added to the ports tree,
+ you have a malformed PAM control file in /etc/pam.d/. All libgnomesu
+ users should remove /etc/pam.d/gnomesu-pam, and 5.x users should
+ replace it with the version in the updated libgnomesu port (ensure
+ that you're using the most current revision of the libgnomesu port).
+
+ 4.x users: listen up! The presence of the /etc/pam.d/ directory (and
+ anything in that directory) presents a Very Bad Thing. Unless you've
+ manually tweaked your PAM settings, you must run:
+
+ # rm /etc/pam.d/gnomesu-pam
+ # rmdir /etc/pam.d/
+
+ or all users will be locked out of your system!
