The libpq.so installed by dev-db/postgresql-base-8.3.4 when compiled against app-crypt/heimdal-1.2.1-r1 seems to lack some dependencies, resulting in unresolved symbols. For some reason this doesn't cause problems at compile-time; I only encountered this issue when trying to build other packages that use libpq, namely grass. $ ldd -r /usr/lib/postgresql-8.3/lib/libpq.so linux-gate.so.1 => (0xffffe000) libssl.so.0.9.8 => /usr/lib/libssl.so.0.9.8 (0xb7f72000) libcrypto.so.0.9.8 => /usr/lib/libcrypto.so.0.9.8 (0xb7e36000) libkrb5.so.25 => /usr/lib/libkrb5.so.25 (0xb7ddc000) libcrypt.so.1 => /lib/libcrypt.so.1 (0xb7daa000) libldap_r-2.3.so.0 => /usr/lib/libldap_r-2.3.so.0 (0xb7d69000) libpthread.so.0 => /lib/libpthread.so.0 (0xb7d51000) libc.so.6 => /lib/libc.so.6 (0xb7c1a000) libdl.so.2 => /lib/libdl.so.2 (0xb7c16000) libsqlite3.so.0 => /usr/lib/libsqlite3.so.0 (0xb7bba000) libasn1.so.8 => /usr/lib/libasn1.so.8 (0xb7b44000) libwind.so.0 => /usr/lib/libwind.so.0 (0xb7b1a000) libcom_err.so.2 => /lib/libcom_err.so.2 (0xb7b16000) libroken.so.18 => /usr/lib/libroken.so.18 (0xb7b03000) libresolv.so.2 => /lib/libresolv.so.2 (0xb7af1000) liblber-2.3.so.0 => /usr/lib/liblber-2.3.so.0 (0xb7ae4000) libsasl2.so.2 => /usr/lib/libsasl2.so.2 (0xb7acc000) /lib/ld-linux.so.2 (0x44e7e000) undefined symbol: GSS_C_NT_HOSTBASED_SERVICE (.../lib/libpq.so) undefined symbol: gss_release_name (/usr/lib/postgresql-8.3/lib/libpq.so) undefined symbol: gss_display_status (/usr/lib/postgresql-8.3/lib/libpq.so) undefined symbol: gss_import_name (/usr/lib/postgresql-8.3/lib/libpq.so) undefined symbol: gss_release_buffer (/usr/lib/postgresql-8.3/lib/libpq.so) undefined symbol: gss_delete_sec_context (.../lib/libpq.so) undefined symbol: gss_init_sec_context (/usr/lib/postgresql-8.3/lib/libpq.so) $ objdump -T /usr/lib/postgresql-8.3/lib/libpq.so.5.1 | grep gss_release_name 00000000 D *UND* 00000000 gss_release_name $ objdump -T /usr/lib/libneon.so.27.1.3 | grep gss_release_name 00000000 DF *UND* 0000008b HEIMDAL_GSS_1.0 gss_release_name $ objdump -T /usr/lib/libgssapi.so.2.0.0 | grep gss_release_name 4ea1be20 g DF .text 0000008b HEIMDAL_GSS_1.0 gss_release_name It looks like libgssapi.so were the required dependency. It also looks like that library wasn't around when libpq.so got linked, as it misses that column containing "HEIMDAL_GSS_1.0" which all the other libs (neon as an example) contain.

The culprit seems to be in src/interfaces/libpq/Makefile: # Add libraries that libpq depends (or might depend) on into the # shared library link. (The order in which you list them here doesn't # matter.) SHLIB_LINK += $(filter -lcrypt -ldes -lcom_err -lcrypto -lk5crypto -lkrb5 -lgssapi_krb5 -lgss -lssl -lsocket -lnsl -lresolv -lintl, $(LIBS)) $(LDAP_LIBS_FE) $(PTHREAD_LIBS) For some reason or other, this list explicitely filters out the required libs. Strange behaviour. Fixing that line fixes the problem. Patch ready.

Upstream has found and fixed this issue as well: http://anoncvs.postgresql.org/cvsweb.cgi/pgsql/src/interfaces/libpq/Makefile.diff?r1=1.159.2.2;r2=1.159.2.3;f=h
postgres is at 8.3.8 now, I would guess this error is fixed now. Can you confirm?
(In reply to comment #3) > postgres is at 8.3.8 now, I would guess this error is fixed now. > Can you confirm? 8.2.8 emerged without an incident. Confirming.
Doesn't seem to be fixed in 8.4.2-r1. With the kerberos USE flag on and Heimdal installed, postgresql-base won't emerge. Will emerge if I turn the USE flag off. Also emerged with kerberos USE flag on, with MIT kerberos instead of Heimdal. It therefore seems to be the same bug, even if it is presenting in a different manner.

I am having the same issue as Bob: postgresql-base-8.4.3 will not emerge with USE=kerberos and heimdal-1.2.1-r4. emerge succeeds with USE=-kerberos.
