krb5-config − tool for linking against MIT Kerberos libraries
krb5−config [−−help | −−all | −−version | −−vendor | −−prefix | −−exec−prefix | −−defccname | −−defktname | −−defcktname | −−cflags | −−libs [libraries]]
krb5−config tells the application programmer what flags to use to compile and link programs against the installed Kerberos libraries.
−−help |
prints a usage message. This is the default behavior when no options are specified. | ||
−−all |
prints the version, vendor, prefix, and exec−prefix. |
−−version
prints the version number of the Kerberos installation.
−−vendor
prints the name of the vendor of the Kerberos installation.
−−prefix
prints the prefix for which the Kerberos installation was built.
−−exec−prefix
prints the prefix for executables for which the Kerberos installation was built.
−−defccname
prints the built−in default credentials cache location.
−−defktname
prints the built−in default keytab location.
−−defcktname
prints the built−in default client (initiator) keytab location.
−−cflags
prints the compilation flags used to build the Kerberos installation.
−−libs [library]
prints the compiler options needed to link against library. Allowed values for library are:
krb5−config is particularly useful for compiling against a Kerberos installation that was installed in a non−standard location. For example, a Kerberos installation that is installed in /opt/krb5/ but uses libraries in /usr/local/lib/ for text localization would produce the following output:
shell% krb5−config −−libs krb5 −L/opt/krb5/lib −Wl,−rpath −Wl,/opt/krb5/lib −L/usr/local/lib −lkrb5 −lk5crypto −lcom_err
