Package: libmail-cclient-perl Version: 1.12-2 Severity: normal Tags: patch
Between upstream versions 1.10 and 1.11 the bootstrap code in Cclient.xs was altered to surround the #include "linkage.c" with an #ifdef, #else block: #if HAVE_IMAP_LINKAGE #include "linkage.c" #else Sensible defaults are offered in the else-block but crucially for me these defaults do not contain the line: auth_link (&auth_gss); /* link in the gss authenticator */ which is in "linkage.c". This means that although Mail::Cclient is compiled against the krb5 libraries it will never attempt GSSAPI authentication even if the credentials are correct and it is offered by the imap server. This problem can be solved by passing in the correct option as part of the DEB_MAKEMAKER_USER_FLAGS. The patch is as follows: # --8<--- patch starts --- HEAD debian/rules Index: debian/rules =================================================================== --- debian/rules (revision 5451) +++ debian/rules (revision 5453) @@ -5,7 +5,7 @@ include /usr/share/cdbs/1/class/perlmodule.mk include /usr/share/cdbs/1/rules/debhelper.mk -DEB_MAKEMAKER_USER_FLAGS := --with-shared_cclient --with-pam --with-ssl --cclient_dir=/usr/include/c-client --with-kerberos +DEB_MAKEMAKER_USER_FLAGS := --with-shared_cclient --with-pam --with-ssl --cclient_dir=/usr/include/c-client --with-kerberos --with-cclient-includes=/usr/include/c-client DEB_INSTALL_EXAMPLES_libmail-cclient-perl := examples/* # --8<--- patch ends --- The --with-cclient-includes option maps into $IMAP_DIR which in turn makes the HAVE_IMAP_LINKAGE definition be true. Alternatively, of course, the Cclient.xs file can be patched to add the missing line into the list of defaults. I've tested the patch above and it all works fine.
