In my opinion the /usr/heimdal is the most compatible option.

Alternatives are used when packages are similar. I dare to say that Heimdal and
MIT Kerberos are too different. If nothing else the API in libraries is not
binary compatible and applications linked with MIT Kerberos won't be happy with
Heimdal libraries.

Same goes for using Conflicts. Some applications will need to have MIT Kerberos
libraries installed.

Of course I'm very interested in getting Heimdal into Fedora and will use
whatever option is prefered by Fedora.
