New kredentials packages on their way
Earlier this year I was sent a patch to kredentials from somebody at the Max Planck Institute in Germany. It's great to see that it's been adopted outside of CSAIL, and it's even better that they're sending patches! The patch is great because it was obviously written by somebody who writes a lot more C++ than I do. He fixed some memory leaks and wrote a new feature allowing Kredentials to prompt for the user's kerberos password and get new tickets. I've rolled his patch in to Kredentials and also fixed a bug that prevented autoconf from properly configuring the package on Debian GNU/kFreeBSD systems. (What's scarier than the fact that Debian has been ported to the FreeBSD kernel is that it actually sounds like the port is pretty mature at this point.) I'm testing these new packages at the lab now, and will upload to Debian soon...
