FreeRadius 3.2.3 not starting due to missing MongoDB driver

[Ibrahim Al Mahfooz]

May I ask, if i build a new a new package from source which i guess you
mean from FR git, how to ensure MongoDb driver will be included during the
build stage?

Any flag related to mongodb should be included during the config step or
will i need to install mongodb client before the compile step?

Appreciate hints or a reference to a guide for this driver inclusion

Thanks Alan
