As of MIT KRB5 1.5, Kerberos no longer supports static linking nor do the static libraries build. The reason for this is that KRB5 1.5 implements plugins to implement functions. GSS-API is now implemented as a function. As such, the MIT Kerberos team has yet to implement plugins using static libraries. Users requiring static libraries or statically linked binaries are advised not to upgrade to this release until MIT provides a solution for statically linked binaries.
