after i short look at the source it depends on Authen::Krb5::Simple,
which depends on Authen::Krb5 (which is in the archive). I also have the
impression that theres no real benefit from Authen::Simple::Kerberos to
Authen::Krb5::Simple, they seem to have more or less the same
functionaltiy / syntax. Please correct me if im wrong.
