            Bug ID: 263094
           Summary: textproc/libxml2: incorrect LIBXML_VERSION_STRING in
                    2.9.13
           Product: Ports & Packages
           Version: Latest
          Hardware: Any
                OS: Any
            Status: New
          Severity: Affects Many People

On FreeBSD 13, the `libxml2-2.9.13` package has an unexpected value in the
`xmlParserVersion` global variable.

Expected: "20913"

Actual: "209013" (note the additional "0" between the "9" and "13").

For comparison, in the `libxml2-2.9.12` package this value was correctly se=
t to
"20912".

Looking at https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=3D262288 this
appears to be happening because of this diff:

```
 /**
  * LIBXML_VERSION:
  *
  * the version number: 1.2.3 value is 10203
  */
-#define LIBXML_VERSION 20912
+#define LIBXML_VERSION 209013

 /**
  * LIBXML_VERSION_STRING:
  *
  * the version number string, 1.2.3 value is "10203"
  */
-#define LIBXML_VERSION_STRING "20912"
+#define LIBXML_VERSION_STRING "209013"
```

(see https://bz-attachments.freebsd.org/attachment.cgi?id=3D232326 for the =
full
diff)

I'm not sure why this has happened, but it's not uncommon for downstream us=
ers
of libxml2 to sanity-check this string to make sure the version dynamically
loaded is the same version that was compiled. See
https://github.com/sparklemotion/nokogiri/issues/2506 for an example.

I'd like to suggest that these strings should be set to "20913" in the next
release of the package.

Thank you!
