Yes, the package is well-known. However, it is for Heimdal Kerberos
(which was missing other features when I compared Heimdal to MIT
Kerberos). Currently MIT Kerberos is used in debian-edu.

Veli-Matti Lintu prepared something comparable for MIT Kerberos
IIRC, but it is not (yet?) available in Debian.
