[OpenAFS] which rpms for client

[Derek Atkins]

You need at a minimum openafs, and most likely openafs-kernel.  If you
want to run the client you also need openafs-client.  If you want to
run a server, openafs-server.  If you want aklog you want
openafs-krb5.  You only need openafs-compat, openafs-debuginfo,
openafs-devel, openafs-kernel-source, and openafs-kpasswd in
relatively limited cases.

In other words, you need the "obvious" packages for what you want to
do, and if you guess incorrectly (e.g. openafs-client without openafs)
the dependencies will let you know you misunderstood.  :)
