#882 Investigate and replace python-requests-kerberos with python-requests-gssapi
Closed: Fixed by mikem. Opened by tkopecek.

https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-us/red_hat_enterprise_linux/7/html/7.5_release_notes/chap-red_hat_enterprise_linux-7.5_release_notes-deprecated_functionality don't want to further support p-r-k and suggets p-r-g as replacement for py3 compatibility.


This would simplify the deployment on el7, because RHEL 7's python-kerberos is too old to support any of the Koji daemons besides the hub (http://bugzilla.redhat.com/1661580). Of course, if we drop el7 support entirely, that is irrelevant.

The bigger picture is that simplifying and modernizing our Kerberos code would help us do some of the UX improvements like #2063 .
