There are patches still coming that will switch the fedora packaging tools to
use GSSAPI rather than Kerberos directly, which will handle auto-selecting the
right TGT. I'm not sure what the status is on this, but Patrick Uiterwijk (CCed)
was looking into it.

If you're using GNOME, it will be possible to have it save your TGT password in
GNOME Keyring and use GNOME Online Accounts to sign you in automatically when
you log into your main account. However, there is currently a bug in it:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1401605

I'm running with the patch proposed in that ticket and it has fixed the issue
for me, so I know it works.


Another (not recommended) option would be to put:

echo "<password>" | kinit username@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

somewhere into your session-start scripts (but of course, this would require
your password in plaintext somewhere).
