Makes sense, and it actually makes the job of getting all this working much
easier. (Kea adds krb5-gssapi as a dependency when it’s enabled, and I need to
figure out how to change that in a clean manner. That can be deferred for later
if we just want to get the update done.)

Cool cool. I’ve updated the port makefile, and it’s busy building as I type
this. The build is slow on my Mac Studio (OpenBSD running in virtualisation)
for some reason, but I’m aiming to get at least the base version tested over
the coming weekend. Hopefully MySQL and PostgreSQL will build cleanly, but I
can’t easily test those; I don’t need them in my environment.
I’ll post the diffs once I’m satisfied. I’m more than happy to share them
privately early - just ask - but until it’s all tested at least minimally,
there’s not much point in posting them here.
Cheers.
