You should stop using krbafs-utils and switch to Kerberos v5.
That is out of my hands, this is a package that is shipped on Fedora
and RHEL proper and any user can install it. Whether it is sane or not
is another question, but asking Red Hat to remove this to fix the
above will not work, espcially not from released distributions.

(FWIW it's not on RHEL5 anymore, but still on F7, F8 and of course the
elder distros)

I agree.  Its not our responsibility to rename our commands after 20
years because a vendor decided to package up conflicting functionality
and make it available to their end users.

Doing so would only further confuse our user base.


what about putting a "conflicts" or "obsoletes" rpm field in there?

Is there anything that krbafs-utils provides that openafs+krb5 doesn't

Sincerely,
Jason
