Package: libsasl2-2
Version: 2.1.27~101-g0780600+dfsg-1
Severity: wishlist

Please re-enable the building of the libsasl2-modules-gssapi-heimdal package in
cyrus-sasl2.

My apologies for requesting this so quickly after requesting the removal of this
binary package and so briefly before the freeze. The timing is so unfortunate
because the threat of removal of Heimdal from a Debian release (of which that
previous request was a part) helped emphasize the urgency of a release to
upstream - and so a release eventually happened in mid-December after a 5 year
silence. 

I'm working on a patch to reverse the removal of libsasl2-modules-gssapi-heimdal.
