nfs-utils-1.2.3 can not be built, because it thinks libevent is not found. Pulled nfs-utils-1.3.4 which is fairly more recent (2010->2017) and all its dependencies (rpcbind, libtirpc), it still fails to build with the exact same error.
we discussed the issue here: https://chromium-review.googlesource.com/349610 nfs-utils build needs updating
The following revision refers to this bug: https://chromium.googlesource.com/chromiumos/overlays/chromiumos-overlay/+/c8031ffd2539bc99f368b96bb783953c89b0dfe3 commit c8031ffd2539bc99f368b96bb783953c89b0dfe3 Author: Abbas Naderi <abiusx@chromium.org> Date: Sat Jun 24 05:56:40 2017 net-fs/nfs-utils: updated (fixed libevent dependency) nfs-utils configure script relied on hard-coded libevent library (-levent) which would fail in recent systems having -levent_core. added a patch to update the configure script to use pkg-config. also updated nfs-utils to version 1.3.4 stable, because it is better organized and we need to modify it later to remove as much of the bundled binaries as possible (we only need the bare minimum that enables NFSv4). dependency: libtirpc and rpcbind had to be updated to allow building of nfs-utils 1.3.4.
