the binary-only package sys-auth/tfm-fingerprint provides a driver for
fingerprint scanners found in many laptops. fortunately there is an
open-source equivalent that replaces this and doesnt require the craptastic
bioapi framework: sys-auth/thinkfinger
i just scrubbed bioapi/tfm-fingerprint on my Dell and replaced it with
thinkfinger and its setup was a crap ton nicer.
so unless there's a reason to keep this, i'd just as soon punt it.
