#149 gssproxy no longer builds on Fedora 20 or older ...
Closed: Invalid None Opened 8 years ago by gisburn.

gssproxy no longer builds on Fedora 20 or older:

checking for joinable pthread attribute... PTHREAD_CREATE_JOINABLE
checking if more special flags are required for pthreads... no
checking for PTHREAD_PRIO_INHERIT... yes
checking gssapi/gssapi.h usability... yes
checking gssapi/gssapi.h presence... yes
checking for gssapi/gssapi.h... yes
checking for KRB5_GSSAPI... no
configure: error: Could not find Krb5 / GSSAPI development libraries

The root cause is that "configure" now uses pkg-config but pkg-config in F20 has no support for krb5 and we do not have fallback code which uses krb5-config in such cases.

The BIG issue with this bug is that it makes automated testing on the majority of big-endian test machines impossible - and reserving always a beaker machine for doing small tests costs a lot of time.


Older version of krb5 are not compatible with Gss-Proxy anyway as they lack the interposer framework. Update your krb libs.
