+ == Kerberos in Python Modernization
|
| |
+
|
| |
+ There is https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/kerberos-in-python-modernization[an ongoing project] to replace `python-krbV` and `pykerberos` with `python-gssapi` in all Fedora packages.
|
| |
+ `python-gssapi` uses the GSSAPI interface, which is widely standardized, implemented by both MIT and Heimdal Kerberos, and much more user-friendly.
|
| |
+
|
| |
+ None of the packages has been removed in Fedora 28 but the following packages should be considered as deprecated:
|
| |
+
|
| |
+ * python{2,}-kerberos
|
| |
+ * python2-krbV
|
| |
+ * python-urllib2_kerberos
|
| |
+ * python{2,}-requests-kerberos
|
| |
