New description:
The MIT Kerberos installation currently overwrites a library
(/usr/lib/libcom_err.{so,a}) that is previously installed by
the E2fsprogs package. This should probably be fixed somehow. The MIT
package
has a switch to use the system-installed version of libcom_err, however,
the
source code needs to be fixed to actually use it with the current
E2fsprogs
package.
There may come a day when a package expects to link to the E2fsprogs
library
and will not be able to do so if MIT Kerberos is installed.
It very well may be that MIT Kerberos also installs a libss library which
is
a conflict as well. However, I have not looked into it that deeply.
Comment:
Added parameters to the configure command to use the system-installed
versions of the conflicting programs/libraries.
