I have few days old cvs build on my Gentoo linux. I'm curious if the 
"undefined symbol: der_get_length" has some serious consequences ...

[timeless]

this isn't a bug, please don't complain about it.

this component is optional.  it is supposed to fail to load if the needed system
libraries are not present or if they don't have the needed symbols.  this
component provides support for SPNEGO authentication over HTTP.  if you don't
need that then don't worry.  if you do need it, then you might want to try
installing MIT Kerberos 5 on your system.

marking INVALID

Why doesn't configure script take care of that ... if kerberos is available or
not? How is someone to figure out if unresolved symbol in a library isn't a
problem or not? Why is it built then when it's not needed.

Personally I use heimdal, which is also kerberos 5 implementation. Although I
don't know what's SPNEGO. :(

Would you disable building this part of code if kerberos isn't available.
Unfortunately, I can't offer a patch. ;)

Comment 4

[Darin Fisher]

support for heimdal is bug 245467

this is not an exact dup, but close enough since that bug is about supporting it.

[Martin Mokrejs]

OK, I see. I've configured with (I totally forgot about that):

./configure  --disable-optimize --enable-debug --with-gssapi=/usr/heimdal
--enable-crypto

I have installed heimdal myself, it's lates stable release 0.6.3.aquarius 


Heimdal also has krb5-config(1):

mozilla # /usr/heimdal/bin/krb5-config 
usage: /usr/heimdal/bin/krb5-config [options] [libraries]
