For Heimdal, you may use either the external password quality check tool,
installed as heimdal-strength, or the plugin as you choose. It has been

For building a CDB or SQLite dictionary, use the provided
`krb5-strength-wordlist` program. For CDB dictionries, the `cdb` utility
must be on your `PATH`. For SQLite, the DBI and DBD::SQLite Perl modules

-* Test::Strict

To bootstrap from a Git checkout, or if you change the Automake files and
need to regenerate Makefile.in, you will need Automake 1.11 or later. For
