Those two sentences would be a great addition to the src tarball README.

Should be, but alas, http://dl.openafs.org/dl/openafs/candidate/1.6.0pre4
shows none. In fact, finding 1.6.0pre4 is quite a trick. I'm not sure you
can do it starting from http://openafs.org/ without manual URL tweaking.
Maybe I'm click deficient, but I still haven't found the rpm to configure
yum. Finally did it by hand.
