CVS --with-krb5 does not work at all for me.

It gives me
"checking for krb5-config... checking whether to use kerberos/heimdal... yes
checking for krb5-config... /bin/krb5-config
checking krb5.h usability... yes
checking krb5.h presence... yes
checking for krb5.h... yes
checking for krb5_kt_resolve in -lkrb5... no
heimdal not found - disabling dissection for some kerberos data in packet decodi
ng


OK   so it failed to find it.
OK  i just edit config.h  and change the two undef's into define's

However, it still eventhough it didnt find heimdal it has still infected libtool or the makefiles
or whatever.

Happiness ensues, It adds the heimdal -L and -l directives MULTIPLE times
to the build command .
This cause libfool to ling the SHARED LIBRARY for libethereal multiple times
with the kerberos libs.
It also tries to link the shared lib rary with THE STATIC .a versions of therse liobs.
MULTIPLE TIMES.

My redhat 8 systemn bvarfs completely for this after like 10 milion lines of errors about duplicate
symbols.


Should LIBETHEREAL really really link with the kerberos libs?
shouldnt only the resulting executables be linked with it?



running configure without --with-krb5 and configuring it manually afterwards still work.
