These packages will likely be officially deprecated upstream soon, and probably should not be used in most cases anyway. It contains legacy kerberized utilities, like rsh. There are no packages which depend them. There have been no changes to this package in Fedora since 2013, and no new capabilities upstream since 2010 when it branched from the mainline krb5 distribution. I would strongly prefer that these be allowed to fade away in order to further discourage their use in keeping with what other distributions have done. Thanks, - --Robbie (krb5 maintainer) Sounds to me like rather than orphaning and waiting for retirement, this would be a candidate for an F27 Change Proposal where we kill it off explicitly. (This has the added bonus of providing precedent for saying "no" if someone decided to try to resurrect this package.) -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: Mailvelope v1.7.2 Comment: https://www.mailvelope.com wkYEAREIABAFAllJZm0JEHolVWI2uqOjAACU7QCgl1EDScxCk7W3o7elYeJ0 mm0He1MAnRJQaRNu1wGNJsXC8l+bh/QiC47I =YWDG -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
