He argues that if the library is installed, tools to use it should be installed. The library should be installed in both krb5 and Zephyr. I think we should coordiante with Zephyr and Athena on this because there is no good reason not to. Charles would like to be able to use a native libcom_err and compile_et if one exists. We should probably consider this as it would be useful for Athena as well as others. >How-To-Repeat: >Fix: >Audit-Trail: From: "Theodore Y.
