#12805: BUG: curl +gss fails to compile -----------------------------------------+---------------------------------- Reporter: marcuscalhounlopez@mac.com | Owner: ryandesign@macports.org Type: defect | Status: new Priority: Normal | Milestone: Port Bugs Component: ports | Version: 1.5.2 Resolution: | Keywords: -----------------------------------------+---------------------------------- Comment (by marcuscalhounlopez@mac.com): The gss functionality would come from Mac OS X.[[BR]] If I understand the explanation in #14775, heimdal is not yet known[[BR]] to work well with the Mac OS X kerberos implementation. Unfortunately, I can not say how the gss implementations compare[[BR]] in the various Mac OS X versions.[[BR]] I only have access to Leopard. Kerberos (as the GSSAPI mechanism implementation) seems to hold a strange place in MacPorts.[[BR]] Several port (e.g. php4, php5, nrpe, fetchmail, ...) seem to rely on the system kerberos.[[BR]] The postgresql port seems to rely on it inadvertently (as discussed in #14697).[[BR]] Kerberos seems to be an unwritten exception to the MacPorts policy of using its own libraries. Given this, I would humbly suggest that Portfile.3.diff is an acceptable fix. -- Ticket URL: <http://trac.macosforge.org/projects/macports/ticket/12805#comment:7> MacPorts </projects/macports> Ports system for Mac OS
