In 0.5, /usr/share/man/man1/aklog.1 conflicts with the same manpage from OpenAFS. It's probably redundant since kafs doesn't even install aklog as a command (it only has aklog-kafs).

I no longer use AFS, I'm disowning this package so I don't block on any changes/improvements.

One additional comment, this really should be a -git package the way it's set up right now. Can we switch it to using actual versions?

The makefile should have SBINDIR=/usr/bin defined, otherwise it installs kafs-check-config directly into the filesystem root.

It should also have DATADIR=/usr/share/kafs, as that's where the shipped /etc/kafs/client.conf looks for cellservdb.conf. (By default the Makefile installs cellservdb into /usr/share/kafs-client instead, and the tools outright refuse to work if an include fails.)

make DESTDIR="$pkgdir" LIBDIR=/usr/lib SBINDIR=/usr/bin DATADIR=/usr/share/kafs (all|install)

There are finally actual tagged releases, so the pkgver can be improved to:

git describe | sed 's/^v//; s/-/.r/; s/-/./'
