It's part of the krb5-doc package, which you will often want to install on
a client installation if you're not already deeply familiar with Kerberos.
There are lots of other things related to client configuration that are
better-documented in the texinfo manual than in the man pages. (Man pages
aren't the greatest format for a full-blown reference manual; they don't
have very much useful structure.)
