Description Damien Miller 2001-03-28 04:46:47 UTC

/usr/kerberos/include/kerberosIV/des.h defines many of the same symbols and
functions as /usr/include/openssl/des.h leading to compilation failure when
building software that uses both.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.Checkout OpenSSH CVS head (www.openssh.com/portable.html)
2.autorecon
3. LDFLAGS=-L/usr/kerberos/lib/ CPPFLAGS="-I/usr/kerberos/include/
-I/usr/kerberos/include/kerberosIV/" ./configure --prefix=/usr
--sysconfdir=/etc/ssh --with-tcp-wrappers --with-kerberos4
4. make

Actual Results:  /usr/kerberos/include/kerberosIV/des.h:116: conflicting
types for `bit_64'
/usr/include/openssl/des.h:260: previous declaration of `bit_64'
/usr/kerberos/include/kerberosIV/des.h:128: conflicting types for
`des_key_sched'

etc

OpenBSD have resolved these problems by modifying their KerberosIV libs to
link directly against the DES routines provided by OpenSSL
Comment 1 Nalin Dahyabhai 2001-03-30 05:04:44 UTC 
Known issue, solvable in the case of OpenBSD because IIRC the libdes used
by KTH Kerberos 4 is derived from the same source as the one in OpenSSL's
libcrypto, which is not the case with the MIT distribution.
Comment 2 Nalin Dahyabhai 2004-08-24 00:21:00 UTC 
The OpenSSL folks renamed the symbols in libcrypto in the 0.9.7
release, marking this as fixed in the current release.
