There isn't a trivial way to do this because the kerberos package
replaces a bunch of files with kerberized versions.  What you have to
do is get the kerberos part of the distribution (krb.*), find out
what files are included, then extract those files from the base
distribution (bin.*) over the kerberos versions that got installed.

It would be handy to have an "unkerberizer" package....
