G’day there. So, I was trying to turn off the auth_gssapi plugin which we aren’t using in our build of mariadb 10.5.8. However, adding -DPLUGIN_AUTH_GSSAPI=NO, which is how I've turned off multiple other plugins, seems to have no effect. It still searches for gssapi, and then later builds auth_gssapi_client. Is there an issue/defect open yet that this plugin can't be disabled, or have I done something incorrectly to turn it off?

-DPLUGIN_AUTH_GSSAPI=NO disables server gssapi plugin. The client plugin is part of libmariadb, it seems that -DAUTH_GSSAPI_PLUGIN_TYPE=OFF should disable it. Regards, Sergei VP of MariaDB Server Engineering and security@mariadb.org
