Re: [gentoo-dev] kerberos USE flag

Especially after a long time of kerberos not having a maintainer (thanks mueli for joining the Gentoo club and maintaining it now). Our current maintainer is working his butt off to get it up to speed but it's not there yet. I don't see what features or benefits it adds to the average user. If no one opposes, I say we redact this USE flag asap. I've removed this USE flag from the desktop profile and created bug #245530 for handling evolution-data-server. http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=245530 -- Doug Goldstein

AFAIK it was added so that the default profile provides support for joining a Windows domain (same for the ldap flag). If no one opposes, I say we redact this USE flag asap. Agreed (independent of the current breakage). Marius

Seems like a silly design choice to add it globally, IMHO.

I was just about to say that samba doesn't have a kerberos USE flag. So any objections to me nuking this USE flag pronto?

I'd be +1 to drop kerberos useflag, and probably make use of eapi1 in nfs-utils and such, where kerberos would be more apropriate.
