Description: Heimdal is a Kerberos distribution, distinct from MIT's krb5.  

Heimdal is a free implementation of Kerberos 5. The goals are to:
   - have an implementation that can be freely used by anyone
   - be protocol compatible with existing implementations and, if not in
     conflict, with RFC 1510 (and any future updated RFC)
   - be reasonably compatible with the M.I.T Kerberos V5 API
   - have support for Kerberos V5 over GSS-API (RFC1964)
   - include enough backwards compatibility with Kerberos V4
   - IPv6 support

I'm packaging it for Fedora because I would like Samba4 to depend on a system-provided krb5, rather than rely on it's internal copy of Heimdal.  (I also happen to think it's a better Kerberos package :-)
