According to
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/29043709/is-it-possible-to-use-linux-bridges-on-travis-ci
travis doesn't support kernel module loading. The post recommends
wercker.com on which the script fails with `kinit: Cannot contact any
KDC for realm 'test' while getting initial credentials` which I had
figured out once, but issues are harder to investigate on web CI
services. Thus, I'd like to get feedback how much sense you think this
script (assume it'll be working one day) makes. I can't figure out so
many failures because neither did I get AFS running ever nor am I a
kerberos admin. I'd be willing to proceed from failure to failure until
it works one day if you support me.

My motivation is to get AFS working (for years now with interruptions)
and given the many issues I experienced a reference implementation of
installation instructions seems to make sense for me.
