There are two problems with the krb5 ebuild currently: One is a link problem, that can probably be solved a few different ways. The way the original source does it, libc is not linked to the shared libraries (like libkrb5), and linked in the wrong order for the tools that go in (s)bin. The result is they won't run, giving a shared library error about a missing "stat" or "fstat" symbol. The other problem is that the little sed script in the ebuild file does stop the old BSD "r*", telnet, and ftp apps from being built, but it robs a space from the makefile that needs to be there to build the important Kerberos tools like klist, kvno, kpasswd, kinit, and kdestroy (important for security). Now, I have some diffs, let's see if I can make bugzilla take them...
Created attachment 136 [details, diff] Diff of the ebuild file itself Doh, did it again. Forgot to mention the version, krb5-1.2.2
Created attachment 137 [details, diff] Patch of the vendor source's Makefiles to link libkrb* with -lc
My apologies for taking so long to get to this. Thanks a lot!!! I also added a 1.2.3 ebuild.
