Homebrew intentionally does not install the krb5 and openldap packages 
into the path, because they conflict with macOS-provided software. 
However, those macOS-provided variants don't provide all the pieces we 
need for the tests.

Also, on Linux you need /usr/sbin, which is often not in the path.

So I think there is no good way around hardcoding a lot of these paths.
