Hi. I'm the Debian maintainer of the krb5 package. I think that merging either 1.6.dfsg.4~beta1-13 or doing a sync of unstable to Ubuntu would be a reasonable course of action. The 1.7~beta1 packages are not something I'd ship in a final release: I know of one upstream patch expected to be in beta2 that will affect interop using a new feature introduced in 1.7. However that shouldn't stop you from using the 1.7 packages since you have months in which to pick up a small patch.
My personal preference would be to take the 1.7 packages, but I'm not familiar enough with Ubuntu to have a strong preference. If you take the 1.7 packages, libzephyr3-krb will become uninstallable, and you'll basically have to accept that the zephyr source package and its dependencies are unusable until the zephyr in Debian experimental is ready for prime time. (According to Karl Ramm, that's not the case today). In addition, you will have to rebuild the rdeps of libkrb53, and you should take a look at the bugs I opened on libauthen-krb5-admin-perl today. I cannot speak at the moment to how this will affect open-likewise. I'll go look at the diffs to the symbols files and see how bad getting Likewise is going to be. -- Please merge krb5 1.7dfsg~beta1-3 (main) from Debian unstable (main) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/371765 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to krb5 in ubuntu. -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs
