I have the campfire yes, but the second camp upgrade never appeared for me and now only the third upgrade is shown. (which is quite impossible to get with just 20 storage)
Upon doing a new game and not rushing the locales and making sure the 2nd camp got build I am now stuck with the first merchant spawn trying to build the blackboard. What I can note though is that when I didn't have the camp upgrade the same sound for the first day happened with the merchant not showing. Though I wasn't soft locked and could just go to sleep. Two days later the merchant showed up and I assume the sequence of them explaining the blackboard played (which should have happened the first time)
I assume the bug that I couldn't build the camp upgrade comes from that interaction as well.
Here a quick screen showing what I mean:
