This package uses MAXHOSTNAMELEN, which is not defined by the Hurd.
The "right" fix for this would be to modify the program so that no
MAXHOSTNAMELEN is assumed (doing dynamic allocation of the required
space), but for now this patch should be enough:
--- orig.getaddrinfo_hostspec.c 2003-11-01 18:56:18.000000000 +0100
+++ getaddrinfo_hostspec.c 2003-11-01 19:01:23.000000000 +0100
@@ -38,6 +38,10 @@
#include "roken.h"
+#ifndef MAXHOSTNAMELEN
+#define MAXHOSTNAMELEN 64
+#endif
+
/* getaddrinfo via string specifying host and port */
int
[ Sorry, don't know about dbs, I hope this is enough for you ].
Unfortunately, this patch is not the only reason it does not compile
under GNU/Hurd, need to investigate about it.
BTW: According to the FHS, the configure line should read
--with-mailspool=/var/mail, not --with-mailspool=/var/spool/mail.
Thanks.

The kerberos4 packages have been removed from Debian unstable.
According to http://bugs.debian.org/358480
Mikael> I'm not maintaining it and I think that all kerberos4
Mikael> support should be removed from debian because it's
Mikael> unsecure and the kerberos4kth packages should be removed
Mikael> from future versions of debian. If you have any discussion
Mikael> with the mit krb maintainer you can let him know my point
Mikael> of view and do anything you want with the kerberos4kth
Mikael> package you want.
It also is obsolete and has release critical bugs.
If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to contact me.
