Running gentoo 1.4, gcc 3.2, unstable/testing.

When emerge -pu world, I get for the last 8 lines the following.

[ebuild  N   ] app-crypt/heimdal-0.5.1-r1
[ebuild    U ] dev-db/mysql-3.23.53
[ebuild    U ] dev-libs/cyrus-sasl-2.1.9-r1
[ebuild    U ] dev-libs/popt-1.7
[ebuild    U ] dev-util/intltool-0.23
[ebuild    U ] gnome-extra/gnome-vfs-extras-0.99.6
[ebuild    U ] net-fs/nfs-utils-1.0.1
[ebuild    U ] sys-apps/modutils-2.4.22

I actually would prefer to not use heimdal, as I already have MIT kerberos
installed and working.  I'm not sure where the dependency comes from, I poked
around in the cyrus-sasl ebuild and only found a reference to a patch that was
needed if one uses heimdal kerberos, but not a dependancy (but then I can't say
I know quite well where to look either).

Sorry for this side-effect of adding virtual/krb5.  krb5-1.2.6-r1 provides
virtual/krb5 as well, so I suggest upgrading to it.  Make sure you have a
current rsync mirror as well.

It may help to emerge -u krb5 first to make sure you get the new PROVIDES for
that package in.

Please try this and respond back.

michael@myricanet.com says it works fine. He just had to upgrade his MIT krb5
package.
