Yeah, the commands are certainly different. 

I'm pretty sure most of the scripts that are distributed with Fedora will
specify the full paths. For example,
http://pkgs.fedoraproject.org/gitweb/?p=krb5.git;f=kadmind.init;hb=refs/heads/master
specifies "/usr/sbin/kadmind".

I prefer not to break user-written scripts, but on the other hand, if a user
runs "alternatives", imho it is their responsibility to verify that this will
not break their own user-written code.

If I understand the above discussion correctly, the two packages (MIT and
Heimdal) can be installed side-by-side "out of the box", and it is only the
names of the binaries themselves that conflict. Right?
