.`krb5` configurations prohibited by FIPS 140-2 can now work again
Previously, Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7.6 build of the Kerberos V5 (`krb5`) system increased compliance with FIPS 140-2. As a consequence, certain previously permitted configurations that were prohibited by FIPS 140-2 stopped working. With this update, the changes have been reverted, because `krb5` only requires to work in FIPS mode, not be FIPS-compliant. As a result, configurations prohibited by FIPS 140-2 can now work again.
Note that Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8 does not support these configurations at the moment.
