Package: krb5-admin-server
Version: 1.4.3-5
Followup-For: Bug #293077

I use the v5passwdd service. I have a helpdesk and user application for Windows
that relies on the port 464 service being there. For changing password in the
Kerberos 5 Domain which feeds my Samba, LDAP, autofs, (ad-infinitum) stuff.

I have been using it on Tru64 v5.1 for a while, but am moving to another
platform for lifetime longevity concerns on the ALPHA hardware.

My problem here is that the file (/usr/sbin/v5passwdd) doesn't exist period.

I have tried to search for the package that contains this file, but as
package.debian.org is down due to performance problems (the search and cgi
sections) and with apt-file (after apt-file update) returning nothing, it is
a bit frustrating.

Also, checking the changelog for the package, it appears since v1.4.2-1
(unreleased) that v5passwd and v5passwdd etc are no longer included in the
package.

Why, if the package no longer includes the file would, in the debconf
template, would it still ask if you wanted to still USE IT!

Also, this bug fixed (on Nov 30,2005), I can't believe the changes of the 
missing files... went unnoticed.

If you could please inform me howto get the v5passwdd and v5passwd etc back and 
change the debconf template. I guess I am a bit DUH these areas.

I thank you for your hard work on Debian. Package maintenance has to be a 
nightmare, espcially for something like MIT Kerberos.
