  Description     : An abstraction layer between a GSS client and the credentials being used

gssproxy (https://fedorahosted.org/gss-proxy/) is an abstraction layer
(typically an application) between a GSS client and the credentials being
used.

The most important use case would be the replacement of rpc.svcgssd which
is now basically orphaned and does not work well in some cases and might
even be a security problem:
