I don’t know. The problem here is that when augeas is used as a library and you only add “augeas” (but not “libxml2”) as an input the configuration will silently fail. It is ugly, though, that a user installing augeas as a command line tool would end up with “libxml2” in their profile. Should these be two package variants then? ~~ Ricardo
