Public bug reported:
FreeTDS supports kerberos
(http://freetds.schemamania.org/userguide/kerberos.htm) which is very
useful feature when working on a network with Microsoft domains and SQL
Servers. There does not appear to be any way to do this in Ubuntu.
I can understand that you may not want to make kerberos be a hard
dependency of these packages but it would be very nice if there were
also packages {tdsodbc,libsybdb5,libct4}-krb5 that could be installed.
I checked out the bzr development branch and did the following:
* `apt-get build-dep freetds`
* `apt-get install libkrb5-dev`
* add the `--enable-krb5` flag to `debian/rules` (based on
http://freetds.schemamania.org/userguide/config.htm#CONFIGURE.OPTIONS)
* build and install the packages
I can then connect to an MS SQL server based on kerberos ticket.
That is to say it isn't that hard to get it to build with krb5, but I
have no idea how to do the control and rules file such that it will
generate a package with and without that build flag.
