What forced you to install krb5-config though? Is there any hard dependency forcing this, or is it just a recommends. It's generally expected that when installing a package, that package should be able to write the files it owns. If all you need to do is not install krb5-config, then I will consider that sufficient. Your suggestion that we test /etc/krb5.conf writability can potentially fail to detect situations where the installation should properly fail.
