Bug Description
Hi,
sorry if this is not the right place to post this. It's my first time ;-)
I was wondering if the "frost patch" could be incorporated into the libsasl2-2 package:
http://
It enables the authentication of hashed passwords stored in a database. It has been around for some time and is included as an option on Gentoo.
I played around with pbuilder and the source package and managed to build a .deb that includes the patch and is working on my Hardy AMD64 machine. I attached the main patch to this bug. I addition, small changes have to be made to lib/Makefile.in and lib/Makefile.am
Looking forward to an answer,
Karsten

Hi Karsten,
thank you for finding this patch.This would indeed be nice to have.
A few questions:
* the build system changes you mention seem not to be included (maybe attach a debdiff ?)
* could you reproduce the dpatch with diff -p so it's eaier for others to put in context ?
Thanks you,
Philipp
