Comment 3 for bug 1993084

Thank you both for helping me to create a more detailed report of the issue. I was unable to duplicate the error using a fresh installation of Ubuntu 22.04.1 LTS; i.e., using a fresh install of the OS, `sudo apt install libkrb5-dev` succeeded without any issue. Using a current installation with lots of other stuff, however, still refuses to install. The output from the terminal and also from `/var/log/apt/term.log` combined is only about 77 lines, so I'm just pasting the combined output here:
