Absolutely no reason for it; We recommend you don't use the one with AFS.

Krb5 support is non-trivial and hence not available yet. There's no need
for bare-bones: don't configure the stuff you don't want or need, or just
use rm. Nothing is automatically setting up kaserver, or runntp; If it
were this would be a different problem.
