We use afslog from the kth-krb/heimdal distribution. klog and aklog
are only included because some people wanted them and wrote them, not
because they work.

make install only installs things in /usr/arla, or whatever your
$PREFIX is. It never installs anything in /Applications. The binary
Mac OS X package does do that, and it also installs a StartupItem. If
you want to run the configuration utility, open /usr/arla/bin in the
finder and double-cklick it there.

This is because you must run "disktool -r" when you have mounted
things "behind Finder's back"(really it isn't the finder, it's Disk
Arbitration). If you run the GUI, it will take care of that for you.

If you want to build a binary package, you can run
"make-mac-package.sh /usr/arla <destdir>" from the appl/mac directory.
This is what I use to build packages. It is not part of the release
engineering, so it may not work.
