Update Information:

This update incorporates the upstream patches to correct bugs outlined in MITKRB5-SA-2010-007 (CVE-2010-1323, CVE-2010-1324, and CVE-2010-4020).
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
ChangeLog:

* Tue Nov 30 2010 Nalin Dahyabhai <nalin at redhat.com> 1.7.1-16
- add upstream patch to fix various issues from MITKRB5-SA-2010-007
  (CVE-2010-1323, #648734, CVE-2010-1324, #648674)
* Thu Sep 23 2010 Nalin Dahyabhai <nalin at redhat.com> 1.7.1-15
- make -libs actually own /usr/kerberos, because it may be the only reason
  that directory exists, due to owning /usr/kerberos/share (#636746)
* Mon Sep 13 2010 Nalin Dahyabhai <nalin at redhat.com> 1.7.1-14
- revert pathmunge-related changes because pathmunge() isn't always there
  if we've upgraded or anything weird's happened (#633212)
* Wed Aug 25 2010 Nalin Dahyabhai <nalin at redhat.com> 1.7.1-13
- adjust the last patch to apply properly to 1.7.1
* Tue Aug 24 2010 Nalin Dahyabhai <nalin at redhat.com> 1.7.1-12
- fix a logic bug in computing key expiration times (RT#6762, #627022)
* Mon Jun 21 2010 Nalin Dahyabhai <nalin at redhat.com>
- pull up fix for upstream #6745, in which the gssapi library would add the
  wrong error table but subsequently attempt to unload the right one
* Wed Jun  9 2010 Nalin Dahyabhai <nalin at redhat.com> - 1.7.1-11
- use the "pathmunge" function to add %{krb5prefix}/bin to $PATH rather
  than doing it the harder way ourselves (part of #544652)
* Thu May 27 2010 Nalin Dahyabhai <nalin at redhat.com>
- ksu: move session management calls to before we drop privileges, like
  su does (#596887), and don't skip the PAM account check for root or the
  same user (more of #540769)
* Tue May 18 2010 Nalin Dahyabhai <nalin at redhat.com> 1.7.1-10
- add patch to correct GSSAPI library null pointer dereference which could be
  triggered by malformed client requests (CVE-2010-1321, #582466)
* Tue May  4 2010 Nalin Dahyabhai <nalin at redhat.com> 1.7.1-9
- fix output of kprop's init script's "status" and "reload" commands (#588222)
