Bug 33241 – gq Can Use GSSAPI very easily, but doesn't

• Status: RESOLVED NEEDINFO
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Michael Farnbach 2003-11-11 11:13:49 UTC]

Even though "sasl" support is recognized by a USE variable in the ebuild, it
does not compile with sasl (specifically gssapi) support.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.emerge gq
2.run gq
3.try to connect to gssapi enabled ldap server

Actual Results:  
error message "could not connect, SASL support was not compiled"

Expected Results:  

Successful authenticated connection to ldap server.


This one is easy to fix, I've done it a number of times now.

ebuild [path to gq in portage] unpack
cd /var/tmp/portage/[etc...]
grep -r "sasl.h"

With an editor, for every instance of sasl.h (there will be one in the
configuration file, and one in a source file) replace prepend "sasl/" since
Gentoo puts the sasl include files in a sasl directory.

ebuild [path to gq in portage] compile
"            "                 merge

Hi,

just two questions:

1) In which version of gq is the bug?
2) Is it still there?

Bye,
Till
