Hello!
I have compiled unbound+dnstap yesterday. And want to share some
experience. If someone fix this issues in source or documentation - than
some people will have little less pain compiling it.
1) In recent version of fstrm library some exported names have changed
from capital letters to small letters, so unbound do not compiles with
it. Here is fstrm commit:
https://github.com/farsightsec/fstrm/commit/e687aa9f8ff0edfa58dd752cb6705978b3488867
I have used fstrm version tagged 0.1.0 for unbound compilation.
2) The small piece of documentation for configuring unbound+dnstap,
located here: http://dnstap.info/Examples/ - is incorrect. Configure
options should be in "dnstap:" section, not "server:"
3) It is not obvious (if not read about dnstap utility) that unbound is
connecting to dnstap socket, not listen to it.
4) unbound+dnstap needs version of protobuf-c at least 1.0.0. One more
configure run, one more protobuf-c installation - not so much pain, but
faster if known before.
