[Bug 1303167] Re: svn with kerberos-gssapi auth doesn't work

[JancioSz]

The answer is libserf, on Ubuntu not compiled with GSSAPI support, in contrast to Jessie version. Still the same upstream version but missing compilation flag.
Could this be fixed for trusty? There is no excuse, IMHO, that svn sasl2, which in turn could do krb5 authentication, as we need this in http/https protocols provided to svn by serf library.

Title:
  svn with kerberos-gssapi auth doesn't work

Status in “subversion” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Recently installed Trusty server beta2. I have heimdal-clients installed.
  kinit dancsa@<REALM>
  svn co https://svn.<domain>/svn/
  svn up (in already checkouted repository)

  expected result: svn would get service ticket, and use that to authenticate
  result: no service ticket got (verified by klist), svn ask for password.

  dancsa at yukari:~$ lsb_release -rd
  Description:    Ubuntu Trusty Tahr (development branch)
  Release:        14.04

  if i download the debian jessie's subversion package, extract it with
  dpkg -x, and run ldd against svn, it lists libkrb5support.so.0
  libgssapi_krb5.so.2 and libkrb5.so.3  where ubuntu's version doesn't
  list these.

  also if i see right both distro uses the same upstream version, so i
  diff-ed the debian directories of thetwo source package, i did not see
  anything that would give the answer.
