although i understand you objected to D51420, i landed it anyway[0] which means the packages are back to their old names and there are no more FreeBSD-krb5* packages. let me explain why i did this: - the change to the package names caused friction both inside the project (e.g., it broke the OCI build scripts) and outside the project (according to reports i received from downstream users). - it was not clear there is any advantage to renaming the packages. - due to above i was specifically asked to land this commit by several people, including a pkgbase maintainer, and one of my mentors at the time. - i considered this a reasonable course of action because this restored the previous status quo and undid a change that (as far as i'm aware) hadn't been reviewed by #pkgbase, so in case of doubt, i erred on the side of restoring the previous behaviour. i apologise for reverting your code over your stated objections but now that we are back to the previous behaviour, we can discuss whether to rename these packages, which i suggest doing via a Phabricator review that includes #pkgbase.
