All the more reason to have libxml2 installation create the default catalog.


Even if the libxml2 distribution is made to do this, many package
systems will patch the source to prevent it doing so. Using NetBSD's
pkgsrc for example, packages are not allowed to install files or
directories outside package root (/usr/pkg by default), so a default of
/etc/xml will be patched to be /usr/pkg/etc/xml.

Are they then setting the magic environment variable in /etc/profile or whatnot?

No, patching the source before building it:
