I've just built the latest adonthell-tools on the latest Debian sid,
and had no errors or problems.

Are you using the latest Debian sid?  When did you last update?

I notice that some of the configure scripts in adonthell-tools call
xml2-config, which, if given the right arguments, returns a .la file,
but only if that file exists, which it doesn't on my system, nor yours.
So I don't think xml2-config is the issue.

Let's try brute force:

        find /lib /usr -name '*.la' -print0 | xargs -0 grep -l 'libxml2.la'

If that shows nothing, try:

        find /lib /usr -type f -print0 | xargs -0 grep -l 'libxml2.la'

If that shows nothing, try:

        find ~ -name '*.la' -print0 | xargs -0 grep -l 'libxml2.la'

If that shows nothing, try:

        find ~ -type f -print0 | xargs -0 grep -l 'libxml2.la'
