The local files do no matter, because libgssapi has been replaced with
libgssglue in an update, which renames the libraries -- that's why they
are taken away during your update attempt. Verify your repository
configuration. What "nfs-utils"* pkgs have you got?  The one from Oct 18th
uses libgssglue not libgssapi.
