NAME¶

krb5-config — give information on how to link code against Heimdal libraries

SYNOPSIS¶

DESCRIPTION¶

krb5-config tells the application programmer what special flags to use to compile and link programs against the libraries installed by Heimdal.

Options supported:

--prefix[=dir]

Print the prefix if no dir is specified, otherwise set prefix to dir.

--exec-prefix[=dir]

Print the exec-prefix if no dir is specified, otherwise set exec-prefix to dir.

--libs

Output the set of libraries that should be linked against. This also includes rpath flags with the expectation that the C compiler is used for final link-edits.

--cflags

Output the set of flags to give to the C compiler when using the Heimdal libraries.

By default krb5-config will output the set of flags and libraries to be used by a normal program using the krb5 API. The user can also supply a library to be used, the supported ones are:

krb5

(the default)

gssapi

use the krb5 gssapi mechanism

kadm-client
