If you get an error complaining about missing libpam, add
--disable-plugin-auth-pam to generic/build.vars:

OPENVPN_CONFIG="${EXTRA_OPENVPN_CONFIG:---enable-password-save
--disable-debug --disable-snappy --disable-plugin-auth-pam}"
</quote>

This must read:

--disable-debug --disable-snappy --disable-plugin-auth-pam}"

Highlight: EXTRA_OPENVPN_CONFIG=..

(It is apparent from build.vars file)

Tested and build successful on ubuntu 16.04 for ARM using:

IMAGEROOT=`pwd`/image-arm CHOST=arm-linux-gnueabi
CBUILD=x86_64-pc-linux-gnu ./build

(Although, I have no ARM device to test the final binary)

Thanks

Sorry .. this should have gone to openvpn-devel.

I went ahead and made the change to the wiki page.
