Summary

The section on installing the kerberos system requirements mentions python-devel for RHEL/Centos/fedora.
On RHEL8 at least the package name needs to be python36-devel, python38-devel or python39-devel depending on the version of python used by ansible. The version installed from Red Hat's repos will use python3.6 AFAICT.

Verified on Fedora 36 and RHEL 8 that 'dnf install python3-devel' does the right thing.

The docs change is to change:

Via Yum (RHEL/Centos/Fedora)

yum -y install gcc python-devel krb5-devel krb5-libs krb5-workstation

to

Via dnf (RHEL/Centos/Fedora)

dnf -y install gcc python3-devel krb5-devel krb5-libs krb5-workstation
