Please sync krb5 1.8.1+dfsg-2 (main) from Debian unstable (main)

Explanation of the Ubuntu delta and why it can be dropped:
krb5 has some ABI issues in 1.8, and are fixed in 1.8.1.  We should use
1.8.1 for Lucid.  Since upstream krb5 tends to be very stable, I think
this is worth the risk of regression.


Changelog entries since current lucid version 1.8+dfsg~alpha1-7ubuntu1:

krb5 (1.8.1+dfsg-2) unstable; urgency=high

  * Fix crash in renewal and validation, Thanks Joel Johnson for such a
    prompt bug report, Closes: #577490

 -- Sam Hartman <hartmans at debian.org>  Mon, 12 Apr 2010 13:08:35 -0400

krb5 (1.8.1+dfsg-1) unstable; urgency=high

  * New upstream release
  * Fixes significant ABI incompatibility between Heimdal and MIT in the
    init_creds_step API; backward incompatible change in the meaning of
    the flags API.  Since this was introduced in 1.8 and since no better
    solution was found, it's felt that getting 1.8.1 out everywhere that
    had 1.8 very promptly is the right approach.  Otherwise software build
    against 1.8 will be broken in the future.
  * Testing of Kerberos 1.8 showed an incompatibility between Heimdal/MIT
    Kerberos and Microsoft Kerberos; resolve this incompatibility.  As a
    result, mixing KDCs between 1.8 and 1.8.1 in the same realm may
    produce undesirable results for constrained delegation.  Again,
    another reason to replace 1.8 with 1.8.1 as soon as possible.
  * Acknowledge security team upload, thanks for picking up the slack and
    sorry it was necessary
