Fair enough. You use alternatives to switch to heimdal, then you take
responsibility for things breaking. I like it.

So for binaries that conflict, rename them to foo.heimdal. I guess we would
also need the krb5-* package folks to do the same?

What about man pages?

As far as libraries go, only conflict I see right now is libgssapi. libgssapi
currently provides that, and that's the citi nfsv4 version.

I'm really wondering if we should just use Conflicts instead. Would avoid the
need to use alternatives and the hassle of dealing with man pages and such. If
someone installs heimdal, we could assume the user knows what they're doing.
