This change updates the port's long_description to specify which GSSAPI implementation it is using. py-gssapi needs a GSSAPI/Kerberos library to build against. On Mac OS X 10.8 and earlier, py-gssapi uses the `kerberos5` port. On Mac OS X 10.9 and later, py-gssapi uses the OS-provided GSS Framework. The specific GSSAPI implementation is useful to know, because a Kerberos credential that is kinit-ed from MIT Kerberos might not be visible to a program that is using macOS' GSS Framework.

This is a harmless enough change, but I think a better one might be to have this always use kerberos5. Would require some minor edits to setup.py. Thoughts? |
