Description Marcin Wisnicki 2003-09-07 06:06:15 UTC

Configure check for krb5_des_string_to_key fails because there is no such
function in libk5crypto, there is however a function called
krb5int_des_string_to_key. I'm not sure if it also applies to mit-krb5-1.2*, so
something like that could be added at the end of src_unpack():

use kerberos && \
 if [[ `nm -g /usr/lib/libk5crypto.so | grep krb5int_des_string_to_key` ]]
 then
  perl -pi -e 's|krb5_des_string_to_key|krb5int_des_string_to_key|;' configure
 fi


It is even safe to skip/remove that test as this function isn't used anywhere in
the source.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. emerge -u \>mit-krb5-1.3 (see bug 26746)
2. USE="kerberos" emerge fetchmail

Actual Results:  
checking for Kerberos V in /usr... found
checking for krb5_des_string_to_key in -lcrypto... no
checking for krb5_des_string_to_key in -lk5crypto... no
configure: error: Kerberos 5 DES libraries not found
 
!!! ERROR: net-mail/fetchmail-6.2.4 failed.
!!! Function econf, Line 324, Exitcode 1
!!! econf failed


Expected Results:  
should compile

This bug hasn't been touched for over two months.  Somone, please fix this.  It's annoying to not be able to do a 'emerge world -u' and leave it because of this kind of breakage.

Comment 2 John Heinig 2004-02-21 21:55:10 UTC

Is this bug going to be fixed any time soon?  The bug also exists with in the newer e-builds of fetchmail.  This is highly annoying bug, because I can not get my e-mail off my university KPOP servers.
