What were you trying to do?
Run discuss
What's wrong:
My v4 ticket file was corrupt; discuss, and other programs
that access the v4 ticket file (such as aklog) would print
error messages like:
Bad ticket file format (tf_util)
This happens to me periodically; this last time it happened
when I logged in on the console of my machine and ran discuss
right away. I've saved the corrupt v4 ticket, if it's of any
interest to people. Here's the transcript of the session,
although nothing strikes me as obviously wrong:
