Package: libxml2
Version: 2.9.2+dfsg1-2
Severity: important
Dear Maintainer,
Hi, I'm not sure if this is a libxml2 bug or an asterisk bug.
But put simply if you try to run the ./configure --prefix=/usr script from the
asterisk-13 directory I get this error:
checking for xml2-config... /usr/bin/xml2-config
configure: *** The Asterisk menuselect tool requires the 'libxml2' development
package.
configure: *** Please install the 'libxml2' development package.
After uninstalling and re-installing the libxml2 (dpkg -P libxml2-dev &&
apt-get install libxml2-dev) it still didn't fix the problem. I checked and
this same problems also occers with asterisk-12 too.
I did get asterisk to congigure by reverting back to version 2.9.2+dfsg1-1+b1
and this fixed things for me for both *12 and *13.
xml2-config --libs gave -lxml2 in both cases.
I don't really know where to look in order to see how asterisk is testing for
libxml2-dev. I could see mention of 2 header files in configure.ac I checked
and they are both there in /usr/include/libxml2/
--------------configure.ac snipit----------------
AST_EXT_TOOL_CHECK([LIBXML2], [xml2-config], , ,
[#include <libxml/tree.h>
#include <libxml/parser.h>],
[LIBXML_TEST_VERSION])
if test "${PBX_LIBXML2}" != 1; then
AC_MSG_NOTICE(*** The Asterisk menuselect tool requires the 'libxml2'
development package.)
AC_MSG_NOTICE(*** Please install the 'libxml2' development package.)
exit 1
fi
-------End of configure.ac snipit----------------
I tried commenting out the exit 1 and it let the configure script continue
Only for it to end with this:
checking for xml2-config... /usr/bin/xml2-config
configure: error: Could not find required 'Libxml2' development package
Any ideas?
