Package: krb5-admin-server
Version: 1.17-4
Severity: normal

Version 1.17-4 of the kerberos 5 packages removes single DES support.  If
such encryption types are enabled in kdc.conf, the admin server will error
out with:

kadmind: Required parameters in kdc.conf missing while initializing

It is not at all clear from the error message what the problem is.  Removing
DES encryption types allows the admin server to start correctly.

It would be great if the error message could be improved.  Failing (or
perhaps in addition to) that the preinst script could check for deprecated
encryption types and warn the user that the configuration needs to be
modified or krb5 will break.
