You would also need the ".so" symlink in order to link with -lbind9,
which is in this package:
https://packages.ubuntu.com/trusty/libbind-dev. This package is
confusingly named, though, it should probably have been named
libbind9-dev. It's unrelated to the original "libbind"
(https://www.isc.org/downloads/libbind/).

However, note that there's also a proposal to get rid of the public
BIND9 libraries and turn these into private APIs:
