Is krb5support really required ?

Greetings,

I'd like to build an svn hook script that automatically tags
in some
specific conditions. I'v tried to use the standard
svn-python bindings
but it's too low level and undocumented, so I wanted to try
with pysvn.

But when I want to compile it for my RHEL4, I get a linking
error that
complains about missing the krb5support library.
Our distrib has kerb5 installed but in version 1.3.x. The
krb5support
lib comes with version 1.4+. But RedHat only provides 1.3+
for RHEL4 and
our IT responsible does not want to force this, of course.

But because SVN really works ok in our current conditions, I
was
wondering if krb5support was really mandatory for pysvn ? If
not, how
could I compile it without it ?

Thank you.

Here is the compilation/linking error I get :
g++ -shared  -o pysvn/_pysvn_2_3.so pysvn.o
pysvn_callbacks.o
pysvn_client.o pysvn_enum_string.o pysvn_transaction.o

On many systems it is not required.
Simply use copy and paste to execute the "g++ -shared
..." command
again without the -l parameters the linker does not like.

Thank you ! This does the work, and the solution was so
simple ...

So, could it be detected ?
Setup.py would generate the command with or without the -l
depending on
the lib availability.
