I'm not sure what you're trying to say here. The version numbers in the 
library filenames (3 and 26 in your examples) track the library's public 
interface, not the software version.

libkrb5.so.3 is the MIT Kerberos implementation: 
https://packages.ubuntu.com/xenial-updates/libkrb5-3

libkrb5.so.26 is the Heimdal Kerberos implementation: 
https://packages.ubuntu.com/xenial-updates/libkrb5-26-heimdal

Could you please be specific about what problem you are having and why 
you think it is caused by the Kerberos libraries?

Note that if you use GSSAPI via SASL, then you can choose which Kerberos 
implementation is used, by installing resp. libsasl2-modules-gssapi-mit 
or libsasl2-modules-gssapi-heimdal.
