I've added libidn2 to my sandbox build, but am having problems figuring out how it is used. Looking at the jhalfs logs, the only reference to 'idn2' is in the build log for libidn2 itself.
I did look at the test log for glibc and the only references I see are to tst-no-libidn2.os and tst-resolv-ai_idn-nolibidn2.c.
In the glibc source, I found inet/idna.c that does __libc_dlopen (LIBIDN2_SONAME) so it looks like libidn2 is only used at run time.
Do we really need to include libidn2 in LFS? Or would a note saying that libidn2 is needed at run time if internationalized names are needed when doing domain name resolution be sufficient? In the later case, we would just refer to BLFS.
