You're out for item three on that list, I guess. I'm not sure that it actually holds in this case, as no program is supposed to be directly linked against libpam-heimdal, but it rather is dlopen()ed by the PAM libraries only when explicitly specified in /etc/pam.d/*, which isn't even the case after installing the libpam-heimdal package, but instead requires manual configuration. So, in my opinion libpam-heimdal is not a library in that case, but more like an application.
Instead of going consequently on and filing a number of separate bug reports against libpam-heimdal, I decided to go the--at least for me-- much easier way: I just grabbed the sources from Debian testing, built them and installed. Worked flawlessly. -- Please update https://launchpad.net/bugs/50614 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
