Comment (by ken@…): Replying to [comment:4 ken@…]: > AFAICS kerberos is only required because we force it on. I do not have kerberos, so tried turning it off. That is not exactly true - without any mention of kerberos in GN_CONFIG, my build failed trying to find my non-existent gssapi.h. '''BUT''' - although kerberos might be enabled in the default build, the indications are that it is turned off by default "for security reasons" (I think it was wikipedia that said that), and it certainly needs whitelisting for valid sites. So, although the default position would be "recommended", that seems hard to justify (most users will NOT have a server tro provide their kerberos tickets). In general, distros do not seem to require it (although their various build methods differ enormously). -- Ticket URL: <http://wiki.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/ticket/10495#comment:10> BLFS Trac <http://wiki.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs> Beyond Linux From Scratch -- http://lists.linuxfromscratch.org/listinfo/blfs-book FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
