The downstream distributors of BIND 9 (Debian in this case) are in
process of removing xml2-config command from the libxml2-dev package
(see Debian Bug #949056 for details). The removal of the script will
make BIND 9 to fail to build from the source when --with-libxml2=yes is
specified or not link with libxml2 when --with-libxml2=auto is specified
and then fail ABI changes (Debian Bug #949056).
When --with-libxml2=<path>, the script checks for <path>/bin/xml2-config
and uses the specified path to link with libxml2. This has been kept to
retain backwards compatibility with systems that does not ship
pkg-config.
- "--with-geoip" is used to enable the legacy GeoIP library.
- "--with-geoip2" is used to enable the new GeoIP2 library
(libmaxminddb), and is on by default if the library is found.
- using both "--with-geoip" and "--with-geoip2" at the same time
is an error.
- an attempt is made to determine the default GeoIP2 database path at
compile time if pkg-config is able to report the module prefix. if
this fails, it will be necessary to set the path in named.conf with
geoip-directory
- Makefiles have been updated, and a stub lib/dns/geoip2.c has been
added for the eventual GeoIP2 search implementation.
