USE='-kerberos' should remove Kerberos support for evolution. However, the ebuild fails to link, complaining of a missing krb5 library.

Can work around by installing app-crypt/mit-krb5-1.5.3 and compiling Evolution *with* Kerberos support
Thank you for report. Please, show us the output of $ equery hasuse -i kerberos Seems that you have not rebuild dependencies (e.g. evolution-data-server) without kerberos.
OK, see what you mean mediacentre paul # equery hasuse -i kerberos [ Searching for USE flag kerberos in all categories among: ] * installed packages [I--] [ ] mail-client/evolution-2.8.3-r2 (2.0) [I--] [ ] dev-util/cvs-1.12.12-r2 (0) [I--] [ ] dev-lang/php-5.2.2-r1 (5) [I--] [ ] gnome-extra/evolution-data-server-1.8.3-r5 (0) [I--] [ ] net-nds/openldap-2.3.35-r1 (0) [I--] [ ] dev-libs/cyrus-sasl-2.1.22-r1 (2) [I--] [ ] net-misc/openssh-4.6_p1-r2 (0) [I--] [ ] net-misc/curl-7.15.5-r1 (0) [I--] [M ] kde-base/kdelibs-3.5.5-r8 (3.5) But why do I get: mediacentre paul # equery depends mit-krb5 [ Searching for packages depending on mit-krb5... ] mediacentre paul # Isn't this the current implmentation of kerberos? I can't say I am really understanding...If evolution depends on evolution-data-server, and evolution-data-server has USE='kerberos', shouldn't evolution pick up USE='-kerberos' too? I am going to rebuild the above list of packages with USE='-kerberos'
Recompiling evolution-data-server resolved the problem.
