Actually configure just checks if we have -lcrypto inside `krb5-config --libs` and if we do have - fails in case we didn't provide --with-openssl to ./configure. Stupid thing, but I think it's supposed in future to be extended and allow to link with different crypto libraries but I do not see how this can work... To all: What do you think about the following solution: # Workaround bug #213705. If krb5-config --libs has -lcrypto then pass # --with-ssl to ./configure. (Duplicates code from acinclude.m4). if use kerberos; then case `krb5-config --libs` in *-lcrypto*) myconf="${myconf} --with-ssl" ;; esac fi Is it safe to call krb5-config from ebuild? If so I'll commit this... pva@gentoo.org 2008-03-17 20:49:25 0000 Fixed in CVS. http://sources.gentoo.org/viewcvs.py/gentoo-x86/net-analyzer/wireshark/wireshark-0.99.8.ebuild?r1=1.4&r2=1.5 In case some kerberos implementation does not install krb5-config this will be no problem both for ebuild and ./configure. I knew that there should be some problem with kerberos and -lcrypto, I just didn't manage to find this problem although I did all I could think about (and this was the reason for delay in version bump btw)... Now I see where the problem is and feel myself much better. :) Thank you Cardoe for report.
