Well, I learned from Sam <hartmans@mit.edu> that this is fixed in Beta
7.
I tried Beta 7 and it looks like a major work has been done on the
testing side of things. I found one small glitch:
the tests are dependent on the access to the dictionary
file 'words'. On Linux (Slackware96) there is no such file
to be found. The test in krb5-beta7/src/util/db2/test/run.test
fails right at the beginning of the 'make check'.
It would be a good idea to include the words file in the package
or mention that it depends on the access to this file in the
documentation
(krb5-install.texi).
