cosmetic config error
building 9.16.2, config options include
--disable-geoip support GeoIP2 geolocation ACLs if available
[default=yes]
(this^^ is confusing usage; do you DISABLE-geoip in order TO 'support GeoIP2 geolocation ACLs if available' ?
shouldn't that be "--enable-geoip" [default=yes]?)
...
--with-geoip2 deprecated, use --with-maxminddb
--with-maxminddb=PATH Build with MaxMind GeoIP2 support (auto|yes|no|path)
[default=auto]
since I have installed GeoIP2*,
pkg-config --cflags --libs libmaxminddb
-I/usr/local/include -L/usr/local/lib64 -lmaxminddb
ls -al /usr/local/{include,lib64}/*maxmind*

and *DO* want to "support GeoIP2 geoloc ACLs", building here with
--disable-geoip=yes \
--with-maxminddb=/var/lib/GeoIP2 \
FAILs with
configure: error: invalid feature name: geoip=yes
switching to
- --disable-geoip=yes \
+ --disable-geoip \
--with-maxminddb=/var/lib/GeoIP2 \
configure completes, reporting 'old' GeoIP support is correctly DISabled
but there's NO mention of GeoIP2/Lite support, i.e., *maxminddb
Optional features enabled:
Mutex lock type: adaptive
IPv6 support (--enable-ipv6)
Python tools (--with-python)

HTTP zlib compression (--with-zlib)
LMDB database to store configuration for 'addzone' zones (--with-lmdb)
IDN support (--with-libidn2)
Print backtrace on crash (--enable-backtrace)
Use symbol table for backtrace, named only (--enable-symtable)
Use GNU libtool (--with-libtool)
DNSSEC validation active by default (--enable-auto-validation)
Dynamically loadable zone (DLZ) drivers:
None

Features disabled or unavailable on this platform:
...
GeoIP2 access control (--enable-geoip)

after subsequent

named -v
BIND 9.16.2 (Stable Release) <id:b310dc7>
checking, the maxmind lib *is* linked
ldd `which named`
libmaxminddb.so.0 => /usr/lib64/libmaxminddb.so.0 (0x00007f94618d8000)
so, *is* available GeoIP2 support with available DBs enabled, and this is just a _reporting_ error?
or is it not correctly/completely enabled ... ?
what is the correct, complete config specification for using installed GeoIP2 support?
