That's a different bug, really...

No, I don't have "root/[EMAIL PROTECTED]", but
"nfs/[EMAIL PROTECTED]" which is working fine between an
etch-server and an etch-client. But the sid-client is no longer able to
mount.

Timo, as the original patch submitter, do you have any suggestions here?
Should I just drop the patch, or is there something else to do?

You can drop it for now. Kevin Coffman hasn't replied to our further inquiries, and this needs upstream blessing to be sure. It's a pity that current implementation lacks this feature which is a blocker for us, so we'll keep keeping our own package in the future as well :)

root-principal is used at least by Solaris, but since Linux is still in the mid-90's with regards to kerberos-usage this needs some upstream work, hopefully sooner than later.

ps. Philipp, I guess you won't be using sudo much :)
