On a recent update, `sudo` got upgraded from sudo-1.9.6_p1-r2 to
sudo-1.9.8_p2. Since then, any call to `sudo` other than `sudo --help`
resulted in a Segmentation Fault. I have tried remerging sudo again or remerging the PAM-related dependencies, but it did not help. Switching
back to 1.9.6, however, resulted in a working sudo.

Is it just me, or has anybody else seen a similar problem?

Best,
Anton

I'm using it for about a week without problems. Compiled with
USE="nls pam secure-path sendmail ssl -gcrypt -ldap -offensive -sasl
(-selinux) -skey -sssd"

Kind regards, tastytea

Working fine here, with the following USE set:

USE="-gcrypt -ldap nls offensive pam -sasl secure-path (-selinux)
sendmail -skey ssl -sssd" ABI_X86="(64)"

I wonder if your issue isn't related to updated PAM libraries. The
post emerge messages for PAM suggest either rebooting or restarting
certain services after upgrades.

Works fine for me. Can you try it with strace to see if you can tell
where it crashes? That or emerge with sufficient debug info that you
can run it under gdb and get a backtrace?

Thanks, I'll try that when I have a suitably large chunk of free time.

I thought so too, but neither reboot, nor re-merging the PAM libraries
made a difference. To be fully honest, for "re-merging the PAM
libraries" I only looked at the immediate dependencies, so there's some
room for error there. Still, I think the best next step is to try what
others suggested: study the strace or the core file to try to understand
in which library the problem occurres.
