The directories searched by the confLIBSEARCH macro (as noted earlier) are defined by this confLIBSEARCHPATH macro. The default list is:

/lib /usr/lib /usr/shlib

It is not uncommon for bind libraries to be installed in nonstandard locations. If such is the case at your site, you can add that nonstandard location to this list with:

APPENDDEF(`confLIBSEARCHPATH', `/usr/local/lib/bind')

If your new location is more important than those in the default list, you can insert that location ahead of the others:

PREPENDDEF(`confLIBSEARCHPATH', `/usr/local/lib/bind')

Achieving the effect you seek can be time-consuming. You will need to rerun Build and observe its output until that effect is displayed.
