Package: heimdal
Version: 1.2.dfsg.1-1
Severity: critical
Justification: breaks unrelated software

After Heimdal 1.1 went in, and libpam-heimdal was compiled against it -
I lost ssh access to local and remote machines due to sshd segfaulting.

The problem was traced down and the culprit was missing library version
symbols on libkrb5.so - because openssh is linked against MIT, and when
pam calls libpam-heimdal, which uses Heimdal libs... bad stuff happens :(

Heimdal was rebuilt to have the symbol versions:
$ readelf -s /usr/lib/libkrb5.so.24 | grep HEIMD | head -n 3
     6: 00000000    97 FUNC    GLOBAL DEFAULT  UND [EMAIL PROTECTED] (5)
    11: 00000000    19 FUNC    GLOBAL DEFAULT  UND [EMAIL PROTECTED] (5)
    18: 00000000   220 FUNC    GLOBAL DEFAULT  UND [EMAIL PROTECTED] (5)

Unfortunately, libpam-heimdal was never rebuilt - so I did my own
packages to allow remote access again.

Then comes Heimdal 1.2, and a re-build of rdeps was schedule to help
clean things up for the freeze...   I installed the new libpam-heimdal
and am once again screwed.

Can we get 
        * the library version symbols re-instated
        * rdeps rebuilt
        * impliment some checking for this in the package build scripts

Thanks,
