alpine requires PAM?!

$ emerge -p alpine

These are the packages that would be merged, in order:

I have a  PAM-free system. I've been using alpine 2.20 on Slackware
14.1 without PAM.
Is there a technical reason for forcing the use of PAM on gentoo?

TIA

No. You can use alpine from the mv overlay which has a pam useflag.
