  [Test Case]

   * Reproducer

  It needs Kerberos to fail, while another mechanism is possible.
  So fix up the packaging errors noted in bug 1648898 so that GSS-NTLMSSP is actually registered properly, then just KRB5CCNAME=/dev/null google-chrome $SOME_URL_WHICH_USES_NEGOTIATE_AUTH

  [Regression Potential]

   * none expected Y and Z release already has the krb5 upstream patch.
   * Debian has the patch as well.

  [Other Info]

   * Upstream fix :
  https://github.com/krb5/krb5/commit/3beb564cea3d219efcf71682b6576cad548c2d23

  * Pull Request :
