Package: rsyslog
Version: 3.18.1-3gss
Severity: wishlist
I haven't filed many Debian bug reports, hope this ends up in the right
place.
Please consider enabling GSSAPI input and output in the rsyslog package.
The upstream package supports it. Enabling GSSAPI is pretty simple
(adding --enable-gssapi-krb5 to the ./configure line).
I built a version of the debian package that enables GSSAPI input and
output by doing the following:
- added --enable-gssapi-krb5 to the ./configure line
- adding debian/tmp/usr/lib/rsyslog/omgssapi.so to rsyslog.install
GSSAPI is entirely optional (but it's very nice for people who already
have a kerberos infrastucture), so it seems reasonable to add the option
for rsyslog. Perhaps it might be added as an 'rsyslog-gssapi' sub
package.
