** Description changed:

  The allow_weak_crypto krb5.conf option was added to Heimdal during the
  1.2 release, but was implemented incorrectly.  The check for desired
  enctypes was performed before the check to see if allow_weak_crypto is
  true.
  
  This has the unfortunate effect of resulting in a completely empty
  enctypes list if the configured list of desired enctypes contains only
  enctypes classified as "weak", since the "weak" enctypes are not valid
  choices (and are thus kicked out of contention) until after the
  filtering of the desired enctypes list is performed.
  
  This feature was implemented during the 1.2 release of Heimdal, on 2008-08-17:
  
https://github.com/heimdal/heimdal/commit/aa3cf9664515246bb8a9674ef270ba9433e0f25c
  
  And the logic was corrected to the proper behavior after the release of 1.4, 
on 2010-10-02:

- - Lucid provides Heimdal packages from the 1.2 branch 
(1.2.e1.dfsg.1-1ubuntu1) that contain the mis-implemented version.
- - Maverick provides Heimdal packages from the 1.4 branch 
(1.4.0~git20100605.dfsg.1-2) that pre-date the fix.

that post-date the fix.
+ - Lucid provides Heimdal packages from the 1.2 branch

feature.

that contain the corrected version of the feature.
  
  In addition to being fixed upstream and released in Natty, a new enough
  version has also been released in Debian Experimental
  (1.4.0+git20110411.dfsg.1-1).
