(I really don't have time to actively participate on this list right |
| 2 |
now, but I believe that if I bring it up on b.g.o, I'll be directed |
| 3 |
here, so...) |

So I'm playing with net-fs/samba-4.0.3, AD and kerberos, and tried to |
| 6 |
enable kerberos system-wide on my server. |
| 7 |
|
| 8 |
No joy, as net-fs/nfs-utils has an explicit dependency on |
| 9 |
app-crypt/mit-krb5 (bug 231936) and net-fs/samba-4.0.3 depends on |
| 10 |
app-crypt/heimdal (for reasons noted in bug 195703, comment 25). |
| 11 |
|
| 12 |
Questions: |
| 13 |
|
| 14 |
1) If upstream isn't going to support mit-krb5, then use of samba-4.0.3 |
| 15 |
and kerberos demands that things with explicit dependencies on mit-krb5 |
| 16 |
either be fixed or not used at all. |
| 17 |
|
| 18 |
I'm the first activity on bug 231936 in two years...could someone please |
| 19 |
look into that one? |
| 20 |
|
| 21 |
2) Is it possible to slot mit-krb5 and heimdal instead of pulling them |
| 22 |
through a virtual? My suspicion is "no", but I don't know enough about |
| 23 |
kerberos to say whether or not it would work, even as a hack. |
| 24 |
|
| 25 |
I'm sure explicit dependencies on mit-krb5 and heimdal will continue to |
| 26 |
crop up, so (and forgive the nausea this might cause) it might help to |
| 27 |
slot mit and heimdal, and have virtual/krb5 depend on the presence of at |
| 28 |
least one. |
