[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]

The build was made in a shell console of an older Emacs version, but that probably does not have any relationship with the issue.

Please note that I could install Emacs on MACOS Catilina w/o any further issue after using the --without-xml2 configure option.

Hi, this is a bug in homebrew's handling of system libraries. They
recently fixed it, so I think all you have to do is update homebrew:

    brew update

But if that fails you can install libxml2 manually then set:

    export PKG_CONFIG_PATH="`brew --prefix libxml2`/lib/pkgconfig:`brew --prefix libffi`/lib/pkgconfig"
