Yeah, it would certainly make more sense with a packageconfig option for
that; currently it doesn't work either with or without the "pam" feature
due to the missing plugins.  So if you want hard deps, then the plugins
need to be included as rdeps.  Otherwise, adding an appropriate
packageconfig option to the flexible depends sounds good.

I still need an init script anyway, so...
