Hi Jon, thanks for your patience with this -- it's a lot to wade through every
time I find a few minutes to poke at this one.

I think the thorniest part of it is the part where krb524d is in two
subpackages, because figuring out when it's safe/correct to remove the
chkconfig symlinks and shut down the daemon isn't lending itself to any elegant
solutions.

Since all v4-related items are going to be dropped in the upstream 1.7 release,
I figure it can be side-stepped by switching off v4 functionality and just
triggering on a package version ugprade.  The downside is that it's way too
late to be switching off the v4 bits for F11, particularly as it removes
libkrb4.so and the hooks libkrb4.so needs from libkrb5.so.  Needing those hooks
to be there for a recent libkrb4.so to work properly makes the odds of adding a
compat package highly unlikely.  I'm requesting an early branch so that making
this and other review-related changes won't create any unexpected problems as
it churns.

Package Change Request
======================
Package Name: krb5
