The file config/config.sub distributed with krb5-1.0.6 is too old: it
does not know about the i686 processor. As a result, it cannot
convert i686-unknown-linux to i686-unknown-linux-gnu, and configure
fails for i686 machines. The fix for this is simple. Just get a
recent config.sub.
By the way, I had the same problem with krb5-1.0.5. I even sent mail
to krb5-bugs@mit.edu about it. Could you please send me a response to
this so I know that someone's at least see it?
Thanks, we've looked at it. The config.sub in the krb5-current (which
is our main development branch), does have this problem addressed. The
problem is that we only put bug fixes into the 1.0 branches, and this
particular change didn't get pulled up into the 1.0.6 bugfix release.
It is in our mainline development sources, and so it will be dealt with
in the 1.1 release.
