I think that at one point, you ran the tests as root, so subsequent runs
as an unprivileged user fail. Did you specify any location of
--with-test-dir ? When building RPMs, the test_krb5_utils directory is stored in
/dev/shm, otherwise in the source dir directly.
Can you check and remove the directory manually?
