Strange pkg behavior

Ok.  Figured out something.  It seems that the reason this is happening 
is that the external authentication module is now part of RT core and 
the external auth was a dependency of RT4.2.  So, I removed the existing 
module.  Everything is find and LDAP authentication still works.

Just in case someone else runs into this.
