[Pkg-xmpp-devel] Bug#810741: gsasl: produces unhelpful error message on Kerberos failure

[Simon Josefsson]

Hi,

First read https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=810741 for
context if you forgot about this report.

I agree the messages is unhelpful, but I don't know how to improve it.
Libgsasl uses Kerberos via GSS-API, so I can't access or see the libkrb5
error codes -- maybe someone knows of a way to read out useful error
messages via GSS-API?  Some experimentation is probably needed.  So help
wanted to improve this.
