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?
