The OpenAFS packages used by Debathena are maintained as part of
Debian and Ubuntu, so in general issues seen with them may also be
present on non-Debathena machines.  To help us understand what's
going on, could you provide the output of the following commands?

uname -a

lsb_release -a

dpkg-query -W openafs-client

Thanks,

Ben
