RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

Description Simo Sorce 2012-01-26 15:57:19 UTC
+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #784908 +++

rpc.gssd is supposed to link against the libgssglue librray so that rpc.gssd becomes independent from the specific gssapi implementation.

Libgssglue uses the /etc/gssapi_mech.conf file to detemine what gssapi to dlopen() and use. By default it loads libgssapi_krb5.so which is provided by the MIT krb5 packages.

rpc.gssd do link agains libgssglue.so, unfortunately it also links against libgssapi_krb5.so

These 2 library export the same symbols so results are unpredictable if libgssglue is configured to use a different library.

rpc.gssd should not link against libgssapi_krb5 directly and let libgssglue.so load it dynamically at startup.
