So DFS would require /sbin/key.dns_resolver? DFS was the original requirement for adding keyutils as a Recommends back in 2011 via https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=504690. Your list then becomes: for several scenarios: - 'cifsacl' option is used or - kerberos auth is used / spnego is used - when DFS is used The extra deps that keyutils pulls in seem minor and already exist on the normal system: Depends: libc6 (>= 2.15), libkeyutils1 (>= 1.6) FWIW, I would favor promoting keyutils back to Recommends. ** Bug watch added: Debian Bug tracker #504690 https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=504690 -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1772148 Title: Mount.cifs does not work without keyutils being installed To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/cifs-utils/+bug/1772148/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
