                           ^^^ no .so

And maybe ObsoleteFiles.inc is the correct file to add this entry to.

Without Dima's fix the following symlink is created:

lrwxr-xr-x  1 root wheel     13 Jul  8 02:51 /usr/lib/libkadm5clnt ->
kadm5clnt_mit

No .so extension and /usr/lib/kadm5clnt_mit does not exist.

$ file /usr/lib/libkadm5clnt
/usr/lib/libkadm5clnt: broken symbolic link to kadm5clnt_mit

With Dima's fix the following symlink is created:

lrwxr-xr-x  1 root wheel     23 Jul  8 03:11 /usr/lib/libkadm5clnt.so ->
libkadm5clnt_mit.so.121

This fix hasn't been committed yet. 

Commit aad5020c709ac4231af88d4b74588a28f87c9497 only removed
/usr/lib/libkadm5clnt.so from OptionalObsoleteFiles.

In my previous e-mail I was only suggesting to remove the broken symlink:
usr/lib/libkadm5clnt.

I really hope I don't add more confusion to this issue.
