The following documentation comment has been logged on the website:

Page: https://www.postgresql.org/docs/13/install-windows-full.html
Description:

The Solution.pm file has the following lines:
if ($self->{options}->{gss})
{
$proj->AddIncludeDir($self->{options}->{gss} . '\inc\krb5');
$proj->AddLibrary($self->{options}->{gss} . '\lib\i386\krb5_32.lib');
$proj->AddLibrary($self->{options}->{gss} .
'\lib\i386\comerr32.lib');
$proj->AddLibrary($self->{options}->{gss} .
'\lib\i386\gssapi32.lib');
}
I had to change them to the following or the compiling failed:
if ($self->{options}->{gss})
{
$proj->AddIncludeDir($self->{options}->{gss} . '\include');
$proj->AddIncludeDir($self->{options}->{gss} . '\include\krb5');
$proj->AddLibrary($self->{options}->{gss} . '\lib\amd64\krb5_64.lib');
$proj->AddLibrary($self->{options}->{gss} . '\lib\amd64\comerr64.lib');
$proj->AddLibrary($self->{options}->{gss} . '\lib\amd64\gssapi64.lib');

Yes, you are right. I have been playing with the deliverables we
recommend in the docs as of [1]https://web.mit.edu/Kerberos/dist/index.html -- Michael, and there are a couple of gotchas
here:
- For the 32b and 64b MSI installer, the include path is not "inc",
but "include". So I could not get the installation on Win32 to work
either on HEAD.
- There is a sub-path called "include/krb5", which is not really
necessary except if we use krb5.h, but we don't. Upstream code
recommends actually to use krb5/krb5.h, meaning that only "include/"
would be sufficient. Keeping "include/krb5/" around is not a big deal
either.

This has not been changed in ages, so perhaps few have bothered.
Anyway, the attached patch fixes both the 32b and 64b builds for me.
Another interesting thing is that the installation of krb5 for amd64
and i386 cannot co-exist together, so installing one removes the
second automatically.

Re: Error building for 64-bit Windows (10)

Hi Michael,
Thanks for the reply.
Yes I also saw that after installing 64-bit, the 32-bit "bin" and "include"
directories were removed.
I think the content of the "include" are common for both 32- and 64-bit.
Windows can run both 32-bit and
64-bit binaries so removing these 2 directories is probably okay. Just my
guess.
Again, thanks!

hamerkop is the only buildfarm member testing krb5 builds with MSVC on
Windows. The path used in this case is c:\Program Files\MIT\Kerberos\
so the patch of this thread is going to break the builds there if this
relies on "inc/" for the include path. Is this the original include
folder used for this installation of krb5?

Thanks,

I have no idea - it's not my animal. Maybe ask the owner
<buildfarm@sraoss.co.jp>

I guess maybe I should look at adding kerberos to one of the animals I
do control.

Oops, I thought that this was yours. I am adding those folks in CC of
this thread.

That would be nice. I think that hamerkop should really update its
installation of krb5 as a first step.

@ Owners of hamerkop, could you look at updating the krb5 installation
on this animal? This include path used seems out of date compared to
the MSI installers upstream provides.

OK. We'll have it done in a few days.

Thanks for your patience.

We found some problems with hamerkop, so we ended up updating two things.

First, the config option that specified the kerberos installation
directory was still "krb5", so we changed it to "gss".

Secondly, kerberos SDK (include, lib) was not installed on hamerkop, so
we installed it. After that, we made sure that the "include" (not "inc")
directory existed under the kerberos installation directory
"C:\Program Files\MIT\Kerberos" which we set to "gss".

Please check.

Thanks Kondo-san. Wow. So this has been actually untested for many
years. The stuff got renamed in the MSVC scripts as of 74a72ec from
2014.

From what I can see, hamerkop now fails to build, which is what I
would expect with the current code. I'll go fix this stuff and
backpatch, that should bring this buildfarm to green.
