  Description     : User space tools for the kafs kernel module

The kafs-client package provides a user space interface to the
kernel support for the OpenAFS file system.  The support is a
work in progress and the initial package includes basic tools
for kAFS and mounter for the AFS dynamic root.

The package includes klog-afs that is used to get an authentication
ticket from Kerberos that can be used by the in-kernel AFS filesystem
(kAFS) to perform authenticated and encrypted accesses to the server.
Without this only unencrypted anonymous accesses can be made.

I am not a Debian developer, but I am in the process of building a
Debian kafs-client package for personal use.
