Thanks Martin. It looks like those didn't show up for me because nss
and libedit are both optional dependencies which weren't present on my
system.  They are detected and used by chrony's `configure` script if
available and unused if not (e.g. chronyc can use either editline or
readline or neither, and if NSS is unavailable then chronyd gets built
without secure hash support).  What's the best practice here - should
I simply specify `configure` options to disable all these features for
minimal dependencies, or make them all optionally available via
PACKAGECONFIG?

Henry
