Re: krb5 build error

The general idea is that freebsd version N is buildable on N-1.
Of course you might find somebody with the knowledge to help. But the practical solution is to just use freebsd 14. (That is still N-2, but freebsd 16 and 15 are still very similar. So it will work for now.)

For the more experimental setup you are trying out I can’t help, so Happy Hacking!

Ronald
