Package: ldap-utils
Severity: wishlist

Dear Maintaner,

Please consider adding
libsasl-modules-gssapi-heimdal|libsasl-modules-gssapi-mit to either
recommends or suggests.

Currently it is indirectly suggested by libsasl-modules which is
recomended by libsasl2-2, but
as libsasl2-2 package has a lot of reverse dependancy and has Priority:
standard, it is most likely to have it already installed when one
install ldap-utils, so the administrator doesn't get notified about the
package above.
I believe it is quite a common setup to use GSSAPI authentication for
LDAP (Active Directory/Samba domain management, and other kerberized
ldap enviroments)

Thanks,
GALAMBOS Daniel/ Dancsa
