grenew needs to have the appropriate ifdefs added to allow it to build without krb4 support. Some earlier changes to the ATHENA_KRB4 autoconf macro should make this fairly easy - you can conditionalize on HAVE_KRB4. Once that's done, you can change ATHENA_KRB4_REQUIRED to ATHENA_KRB4 in configure.in.

For other Debathena packages with optional krb4 support, we've built all versions without krb4. However, since krb4 tickets are still needed on pre-{Karmic,Squeeze} releases for zephyr, this time we need to actually hack the packaging to pass --without-krb4 when the version of krb5 >= 1.7, and --with-krb4=$(shell krb5-config --prefix krb4) for older versions.

This is a separate issue from the fact that login chroots are slow. Quickstations are designed for short login sessions to quickly check mail or print documents. When it takes the better part of 1 minute (of your 10 minute session) to get a web browser, that's not good.

Our long term fix for this will end up being aufs or whatever we do to speed up login times in general. We need short term fixes, however, which we can deploy before we use up all public goodwill for Debathena.

Possible short term fixes:

1) Make quickstations closer to -workstation machines, and disable root access completely (i.e. No installing software). 2) Do something awesome with kiosk mode from gdm.

I think #1 is far less effort than #2, but that's just me. We should compare login times for -cluster and -workstation on similar hardware to verify that #1 will be an improvement.
