error: /usr/lib/sssd/libsss_krb5.so: undefined symbol: krb5_cc_retrieve_cred

[Brian J. Murrell]

Binary package hint: sssd

Seems that sssd needs to be rebuilt or something as it fails to find symbols in the krb5 libraries:

# sssd -d 1

Sadly, it seems that a simple rebuild is not enough to resolve this issue. :-( What is interesting of course is that there was no linking time error. What is even more interesting is that the /usr/lib/sssd/libsss_krb5.so does not have any krb5 lib dependencies:

# ldd /usr/lib/sssd/libsss_krb5.so
 linux-gate.so.1 => (0x00dcc000)
 libc.so.6 => /lib/tls/i686/cmov/libc.so.6 (0x00536000)
 /lib/ld-linux.so.2 (0x006f1000)

I would think it should, no?
