10 * New upstream release.
11 - SQLite password dictionaries are now supported and can be used to
12 reject passwords within edit distance one of any dictionary word.
13 - cdbmake-wordlist has been renamed to krb5-strength-wordlist and can
14 also generate SQLite databases compatible with this plugin and
15 Heimdal quality check program.
16 - heimdal-history, a password history implementation for Heimdal, has
17 been added and can be stacked with heimdal-strength to check both
18 history and password strength.
19 - New configuration option, minimum_different, which sets the minimum
20 number of different characters required in a password.
21 * Add the upstream signing key to debian/upstream/signing-key.asc and
22 configure uscan to do signature validation. Configure uscan to
23 download the xz tarball instead of the gz tarball.
24 * Create a _history user and group and a /var/lib/heimdal-history
25 directory on package installation for the use of heimdal-history,
26 remove the user and the standard database on purge, and remove the
27 directory if empty on package purge or removal.

34 - Support for more complex length-sensitive character class
35 restrictions using the new require_classes configuration setting.
36 - cdbmake-wordlist now supports filtering out words based on maximum
37 length and user-supplied regular expressions, and supports running
38 in filter mode to generate a new word list.

52 * Initial upload to Debian. (Closes: #725753)
53 * New upstream release.
54 - Add native support for the MIT Kerberos password quality plugin
55 interface included in MIT Kerberos 1.9 and later.
56 - Stop building the Heimdal plugin. Heimdal prefers using an external
58 - Add support for TinyCDB dictionaries with a simpler dictionary
59 lookup algorithm. This allows use of this package to check
60 passwords against a large, fast dictionary with a minimum of
61 permutations as an alternative or supplement to the extensive
62 permutations tested by CrackLib.
63 - Minimum password length can now be enforced directly through
64 configuration of this module without relying on CrackLib.
65 - New boolean settings require_ascii_printable and require_non_letter
66 to reject passwords with non-ASCII or non-printable characters and
67 to require passwords contain at least one non-letter (and
69 - The plugin and external checking program will now run without a
70 dictionary configured so that they can be used only to check length
71 and the lighter character restrictions if so desired.
72 - When checking for passwords based on the principal, also check each
73 component of the principal to find passwords based on the realm.
74 * Eliminate the heimdal-strength package. krb5-strength now builds a
75 single binary package of the same name including the MIT plugin and
76 the Heimdal external password quality program. The Heimdal plugin is
77 not built by the Debian packaging because Heimdal prefers external
78 programs. The plugin can be added later as a separate package if
80 * Revise the package long description for the merger of krb5-strength
81 and heimdal-strength and the new capabilities in 2.0.
82 * Recommend cracklib-runtime and tinycdb since they are required to
83 build dictionaries. Downgrade krb5-admin-server to Enhances and add
85 * Update debhelper compatibility level to V9.
86 - Enable hardening flags, including bindnow and PIE.
87 - Enable parallel builds.
88 * Use dh-autoreconf to rebuild the build system during package builds.
89 * Use xz compression for the upstream and Debian tarballs.
90 * Add branch information to the Vcs-Git metadata.
91 * Update standards version to 3.9.4 (no changes required).
92 * Rewrite debian/copyright in copyright-format 1.0.
93 * Remove README.Debian. All of that information is now available in the
94 installed upstream README file.
95 * Remove Bugs header now that this package is in Debian proper.
