Description:
------------
Please integrate PAM support into PHP 8. With PHP 7 it is already a pain to use the pluggable authentication system because the PECL extension is not maintained anymore. I fear that with PHP 8 the extension and available patch files will become unusable. Please consider to fully integrate PAM into the origin source tree to allow developers to use this really needed feature. Otherwise i think PHP 8 will become only a toy that can't be used for professional applications anymore.

Well, it should be the other way round: there is this generally
useful and well maintained PECL package; shouldn't we bundle it?

Anyhow, this feature request requires discussion which is beyond
the scope of this bug tracker.  Please send mail to the internals
mailing list[1].  I'm suspending this ticket for the time being.

You are talking about https://pecl.php.net/package/PAM? This is not maintained since ages and can not be used anymore since PHP7, i don't expect it will work with PHP8 then. To get it working with PHP7 you need to patch it, see https://github.com/openmediavault/openmediavault/blob/master/deb/php-pam/debian/patches/01-php7.patch (patch was done by Mikael Johansson).

Will do so, thanks.
