What are we going to do about testing this? We should add libjson-c to some build containers. We need to annotate # Xen < 4.21 in the existing containers so we can drop it in due course. Also, for a container we don't intend to backport to stable trees, we should have libjson-c only and no yajl. Probably best to do this in the Alpine update which is long overdue. ~Andrew
