Comment (by david@…):

 This is a bit odd, since the error is thrown about a system file (/usr/lib
 outside macports /opt) so what to do...

 This command outputs what I'd expect...

 David-Favor-iMac# port provides /usr/lib/pam/pam_gnome_keyring.so
 /usr/lib/pam/pam_gnome_keyring.so is not provided by a MacPorts port.

 Ah... that's right, PAM has to have files placed where it expects to
 ensure
 no exploit/malware is attempting a machine hijack... so... this is set...

 destroot.violate_mtree yes

 Searching for all occurrences of pam_gnome_keyring shows only one
 Portfile.

 David-Favor-iMac# ack -i -r -l pam_gnome_keyring /opt/local/var/macports
 /opt/local/var/macports/sources/rsync.macports.org/release/tarballs/ports/gnome
 /gnome-keyring/Portfile

 So the problem must be in the Portfile...

 Ah... now I get it.

 Here's the problem.

 1) Install MacPorts + some port that requires gnome-keyring

 2) Completely remove MacPorts via brute force rm -rf ... (per the MacPorts
 Guide)

 3) Reinstall MacPorts + some port that requires gnome-keyring

 At this point the install done in #1 has left
 /usr/lib/pam/pam_gnome_keyring.so as residue (wasn't removed in #2)

 So a simple fix might be something like...

 {{{
 pre-destroot {
     file delete -force ${destroot}/usr/lib/pam/pam_gnome_keyring.la
 }
 }}}

 This way a -force delete is done (which should do a rm -f and ignore
 errors) prior to install.
 Thus if the residue of a previous install exists, it's just quietly
 removed.

 I'll try this + if it works provide a patch file.

 Whew... this was driving me crazy...
