Hello,
I'm trying to give www/mod_auth_gssapi support for MIT Kerberos in base
on FreeBSD 15+. That part is actually easy, but what I cannot figure out
is how to treat earlier versions.
What I would like to do is either not offer the option at all or, if
that is not possible, IGNORE if the GSSAPI_BASE option is set and the
system does not have MIT Kerberos in base (OSVERSION < 1500054).
I tried wrapping the entire OPTIONS block in
.if ${OPSYS} == FreeBSD && ${OSVERSION} < 1500054
, but that needs <bsd.port.options.mk> for OSVERSION, and that in turn
must come _after_ the OPTIONS block. Using <bsd.port.pre.mk> instead
does not work either; it breaks make config (or in my case, poudriere
options), the options just aren't set anymore.
I also tried
.if ${OPSYS} == FreeBSD && ${OSVERSION} < 1500054
GSSAPI_BASE_IGNORE= Needs MIT Kerberos in base
.endif
, and that has the same problem: If it is after <bsd.port.options.mk> it
does not work, and if it is before, I don't have OPSYS and/or OSVERSION.
Is there a way to do this, or perhaps a much better solution I have not
thought of, and should I even spend more time working on it with 14.3
going out of support in five months?
Thanks for any help.
