Time for more confessions. This is in NetBSD's pkgsrc, which only builds with explicitly "buildlinked" libraries, so that build dependencies are explicitly declared, and not automatically picked up from those you just accidentally happen to have installed on the build host. What I had overlooked was that I in /etc/mk.conf needed PKG_OPTIONS.bind+= bind-xml-statistics-server It's another matter whether this one should default to "on" in the package itself -- I'm leaning in that direction, but need to discuss with some others before I change the default. And I also need the "dnstap" option in my deployment, so I need a custom build anyway. Like I said, "lesson learned". > Perhaps, if libxml2 and libjson-c are both unavailable, we should > disable statistics-channels in the configuration - at least that way > the problem would've been easier to figure out. Right, I was sort of thinking in that direction as well, but would not be too insistent on something along those lines. Perhaps return a web page saying "built without both libjson-c and libxml2, so nothing to see here"?
