roken and heimdal dependencies

[Henry B. Hotz]

I'm sure that's good enough for most people.  I prefer to build from  
source though.

This is a trivial issue compared to building Ethereal on a non-Linux  
system, for example.  I got up to about 10 other packages I needed  
(with their own version compatibility issues) before I gave up and used  
darwinports (which at least I was able to modify to use Heimdal,  
separately installed).
