System: Linux ohnopublishing.net 2.6.30-gentoo-r4athlon64x2_2009.05.31 #1 SMP Fri Aug 21 12:50:25 EDT 2009 x86_64 AMD Athlon(tm) 64 X2 Dual Core Processor 4200+ AuthenticAMD GNU/Linux


>Description:
	It appears from the online documentation that mit-krb5 and its build system does not support building only libs/clients. There should be options for building just the basic, necessary clients (kinit, kdestroy, kpasswd, klist, maybe kadmin) and libs. The primary number of systems which will have mit-krb5 installed do not need or have no reason to run the KDC. Building and installing that component is a waste of time and space for those machines.
>How-To-Repeat:
	Read documentation and compile/install mit-krb5
>Fix:
	An option to only build the necessary client programs should be provided. Preferrably, the krb5-enabled system-util replacements would be optional as well, but those are at least still useful on client machines which aren't acting as KDCs ;-)
