I simply didn't have the libxml2 development package on this system. Gets me every time! (Although usually I don't get as far as filing a bug report.) So the fix was as simple as: # dnf install libxml2-devel At 18:40 +0200 on Friday 2017-03-10, Eli Zaretskii wrote: > > What does config.log say about the libxml2 tests? Sorry, I'd forgotten about that file! Here's what it was saying earlier: configure-test:16329: checking for LIBXML2 configure-test:16338: $PKG_CONFIG --exists --print-errors "libxml-2.0 > 2.6.17" Package libxml-2.0 was not found in the pkg-config search path. Perhaps you should add the directory containing `libxml-2.0.pc' to the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable No package 'libxml-2.0' found configure-test:16341: $? = 1 configure-test:16361: $PKG_CONFIG --exists --print-errors "libxml-2.0 > 2.6.17" Package libxml-2.0 was not found in the pkg-config search path.
