Hi @abdulalalalalala

On which Linux distribution are you trying to build Hurl?

Can you check that you've followed build instructions for Linux on https://hurl.dev/docs/installation.html#build-on-linux?

Hi @abdulalalalalala

indeed. I'm on Fedora 40.

I looked at the dependencies and found libxml2-devel missing in system, which hurl's cargo installation method requires for compilation. After dnf install libxml2-devel, cargo was able to compile ok.

I guessing that may be because a rust lib libxml actually require the host's system to have libxml2-devel from both "hurl_core" and "hurl" workspaces. I think there is alternative to it called xml-rs that doesn't require host to install extra pkg. It can potentially make hurl to be more "distro agnostic"... but that seems way outside of scope to this issue i posted

Hi @abdulalalalalala

For the build on Fedora, we should update the docs https://hurl.dev/docs/installation.html#build-on-linux, I'm going to create an issue on that.

For libxml2, we use it for:

This PR #1910 can gives some context on performance gain using libxml2.
