           Summary: perl-Filesys-SmbClient missing flag compatibility with
                    samba4
           Product: Fedora

Description of problem:
Unable to use kerberos via Filesys::SmbClient

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
Filesys-SmbClient-3.2

How reproducible:
Create a new Filesys::SmbClient in perl with the option
  flags => SMB_CTX_FLAG_USE_KERBEROS
Does not invoke the use of KERBEROS.

Furthermore, making the perl module manually reveals the missing option, and
the code in the header file notes the new mechanism by which kerberos is
enabled.  Note that, when using the provided rpm, the invocation fails silently
back to password - which runs the risk of locking your account out as the
password is not likely provided.

Steps to Reproduce:
my $smb = new Filesys::SmbClient(
                                username  => "user",
                                password => "",  # working, via kerberos
                                workgroup => "DOMAIN",
                                flags => SMB_CTX_FLAG_USE_KERBEROS,
                                debug     => 10);

Actual results:
Attempts password based login.

Expected results:
Uses existing kerberos credentials.

Additional info:
See /usr/include/samba-4.0/libsmbclient.h for new method of management.
