Hi Dylan, Chances are libldap's dependency on libgssapi is not relevant for you. It's only used by the ldap_gssapi_bind family of functions, which are non-standard and only used by one or two specific applications.
Without knowing more about your use case, I would assume that for your purposes you would select the Kerberos implementation by installing one of the two libsasl2-modules-gssapi-* packages I mentioned, as the standard way to use GSSAPI is via the SASL library. MIT and Heimdal both provide conflicting and non-conflicting dev packages: - krb5-multidev provides krb5-config.mit and does not conflict - heimdal-multidev provides krb5-config.heimdal and does not conflict - libkrb5-dev provides krb5-config (symlinked to krb5-config.mit) and conflicts with heimdal-dev - heimdal-dev provides krb5-config (symlinked to krb5-config.heimdal) and conflicts with libkrb5-dev Hope this helps! -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to openldap in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1772530 Title: OpenLDAP depends on old version of KRB5 which conflicts with other packages Status in openldap package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: Currently, Ubuntu 16.04's newest offered version of OpenLDAP is version 2.4.42. This version depends on libgssapi3 which in turn depends libkrb5 version 2.6. Many other common libraries (like gssapi_krb5) depend on libkrb5 3.0. From what I can tell, OpenLDAP version 2.4.44 fixes this issue, but it is not available from any of the Ubuntu repo's. It would be fabulous if this could be fixed.
