The error is above the config.log, and looks like this: checking pkg-config is at least version 0.9.0... yes checking for openssl >= 1.0.2... yes checking for openssl/pem.h... yes checking for nss >= 3.11... yes checking for p11-kit-1... yes checking for libical >= 0.40... yes checking for libical/ical.h... yes checking for ldns >= 1.7.0... yes checking for ldns/ldns.h... yes checking for libunbound >= 1.16... no configure: error: Package requirements (libunbound >= 1.16) were not met: Package 'libevent', required by 'libunbound', not found This looks like a bug in libunbound - it is missing a dependency on libevent, which is then not pulled in, and in turn causes our build to fail. This is the bug I raised when I originally hit the problem: https://www.mail-archive.com/debian-bugs-dist@lists.debian.org/msg2019978.html Installing libevent manually is the workaround, obviously not going to work for an automated build.
