Hi Timo,
In the process of investigating
<https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/krb5/+bug/1643708>, I discovered
that the gss-ntlmssp package doesn't actually register itself correctly out
of the box, for two reasons:
- per /etc/gss/mech.d/README, mech config files must end in .conf to be
read
- MIT krb5 won't translate ${prefix} to /usr at runtime, this needs to be
written correctly at build time.
I've prepared a small patch to debian/rules that would address both issues,
allowing gss-ntlmssp to be correctly registered for libgssapi-krb5's
purposes on installation.
Since you have a conffile installed in a different (and useless) path, you
would also want to clean this up on upgrade. I suggest just rm_conffile for
this, since in its previous location it seems to be useless so there's no
value in trying to transfer its contents to a new location on upgrade (and
it's difficult to cleanly handle both moving and changing the contents of a
conffile in a single revision).
Thanks for considering,
