I'm running pkgbase on 15-CURRENT AMD64 I'm using the repo that
claims (per https://wiki.freebsd.org/PkgBase) there are builds twice a

And yet, when I try to update, I'm often told that I'm up to date,
even after days or weeks, despite seeing changes in the git tree.
I found some time to look into this today.
pkgbase builds have been broken since the Kerberos updates hit the tree.
All builds on main for all architectures fail with:

I tried to upgrade the pkgbase builder to a later version of main (our
cluster buildworld does work) and that made matters much worse:
[email protected]:~ % su
Segmentation fault
[email protected]:~ % ksu
ksu: Operation not permitted while selecting the best principal
(Our cluster su uses pam_krb5.so.)
I logged in out of band and kicked off a build for giggles: no dice.
Same telnet linker error as above.
So two things need to happen for any progress to be made:
- Kerberized su / pam_krb5.so su need to work.
- The pkgbase builds need to be fixed in a post-Kerberos-update world.
I am happy to test commits but I do not have the time to debug this
further.
I have restarted the pkgbase and pkg-kmods builds on this builder so
pkgbase builds for stable/14, releng/14.2 and releng/14.3 as well as the
kmods_latest will continue to update on the previous schedule.
main will continue to be broken until this gets fixed.
Note that we cannot upgrade _ANY_ machines in the cluster until we have
a working su.
