3 * New upstream release.
4 - SQLite password dictionaries are now supported and can be used to
5 reject passwords within edit distance one of any dictionary word.
6 - cdbmake-wordlist has been renamed to krb5-strength-wordlist and can
7 also generate SQLite databases compatible with this plugin and
8 Heimdal quality check program.
9 - heimdal-history, a password history implementation for Heimdal, has
10 been added and can be stacked with heimdal-strength to check both
11 history and password strength.
12 - New configuration option, minimum_different, which sets the minimum
13 number of different characters required in a password.
14 * Add the upstream signing key to debian/upstream/signing-key.asc and
15 configure uscan to do signature validation. Configure uscan to
16 download the xz tarball instead of the gz tarball.

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

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