cosmetic config error

building 9.16.2, config options include

  --disable-geoip         support GeoIP2 geolocation ACLs if available
                          [default=yes]

(this^^ is confusing usage; do you DISABLE-geoip in order TO 'support GeoIP2 
geolocation ACLs if available' ?
 shouldn't that be "--enable-geoip" [default=yes]?)



  ...
  --with-geoip2           deprecated, use --with-maxminddb
  --with-maxminddb=PATH   Build with MaxMind GeoIP2 support (auto|yes|no|path)
                          [default=auto]

since I have installed GeoIP2*, 

        pkg-config --cflags --libs libmaxminddb
                -I/usr/local/include -L/usr/local/lib64 -lmaxminddb

        ls -al /usr/local/{include,lib64}/*maxmind*

and *DO* want to "support GeoIP2 geoloc ACLs", building here with

        --disable-geoip=yes \
        --with-maxminddb=/var/lib/GeoIP2 \

FAILs with

        configure: error: invalid feature name: geoip=yes

switching to

-       --disable-geoip=yes \
+       --disable-geoip \
        --with-maxminddb=/var/lib/GeoIP2 \

configure completes, reporting 'old' GeoIP support is correctly DISabled
but there's NO mention of GeoIP2/Lite support, i.e., *maxminddb

        Optional features enabled:
            Mutex lock type: adaptive
            IPv6 support (--enable-ipv6)
            Python tools (--with-python)
            XML statistics (--with-libxml2)
            JSON statistics (--with-json-c): -I/usr/include/json-c -ljson-c
            HTTP zlib compression (--with-zlib)
            LMDB database to store configuration for 'addzone' zones 
(--with-lmdb)
            IDN support (--with-libidn2)
            Print backtrace on crash (--enable-backtrace)
            Use symbol table for backtrace, named only (--enable-symtable)
            Use GNU libtool (--with-libtool)
            DNSSEC validation active by default (--enable-auto-validation)
            Dynamically loadable zone (DLZ) drivers:
                None
        
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
        Features disabled or unavailable on this platform:
            ...
            GeoIP2 access control (--enable-geoip)
            ...

after subsequent

        make depend
        make
        make install

        named -v
                BIND 9.16.2 (Stable Release) <id:b310dc7>

checking, the maxmind lib *is* linked

        ldd `which named`
                libmaxminddb.so.0 => /usr/lib64/libmaxminddb.so.0 
(0x00007f94618d8000)


so, *is* available GeoIP2 support with available DBs enabled, and this is just 
a _reporting_ error?
or is it not correctly/completely enabled ... ?

what is the correct, complete config specification for using installed GeoIP2 
support?
