Probably solved with the 0.32-6 sync

[Mike Mestnik (cheako)]

Hello, I don't remember this specific bug. However at some point the krb developers dropped support for static binaries. So diet builds will never work. The solution I used was to use a pre krb4.x source will all it's bugs and security issues, but support for static builds.

This produced usable binaries. If there was any interest in supporting a static build of krb then perhaps usable binaries could be upgraded to secure binaries, but in most cases usable is what counts and secure is just some forum button you always just click "Yes I understand."

This bug can be marked won't fix.

[Thorsten Glaser (mirabilos)]

ok, thanks for agreeing (the problem in dietlibc _is_ probably solved, though)
