So all good. CQLSH starts just fine out of the box. As soon as we use
SaslAuthProvider as in my example, we need to install additional libraries,
puresasl and kerberos in this example.
I think we finally understand each other :) You want to be sure that if this is
in, CQLSH just works fine - and it will - it is just as soon as we start to use
something custom (as in my example), an user needs to satisfy the dependencies
of that very specific custom auth provider - and I just want to document this
fact.

> Currently the Cassandra drivers offer a plugin authenticator architecture for
> the support of different authentication methods. This has been leveraged to
> provide support for LDAP, Kerberos, and Sigv4 authentication. Unfortunately,
> cqlsh, the included CLI tool, does not offer such support. Switching to a new
> enhanced authentication scheme thus means being cut off from using cqlsh in
> normal operation.
> We should have a means of using the same plugins and authentication providers
> as the Python Cassandra driver.
