3 * Special Stanford-only local backport that builds the package against
4 Heimdal instead of MIT Kerberos. We only need the heimdal-strength
5 program and the MIT API isn't supported until wheezy.

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

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

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

120 * Create a separate heimdal-strength package containing only the
121 external password check program for Heimdal. The Heimdal version of
122 the libkadm5srv plugin isn't packaged for the time being.
123 * Update debhelper compatibility mode to V7.
