Hi, After today's upgrade to libxml2-2.7.8, a lot of programs linking against libxml2 fail to start, as the new libxml2 dows not contain the LIBXML2_* symbols anymore (libxml2-2.7.7 did). As an example, this is epiphany trying to start with libxml2-2.7.8: /libexec/ld-elf.so.1: /usr/local/lib/libxml2.so.5: version LIBXML2_2.5.7 required by /usr/local/bin/epiphany not defined and checking with objdump reveals that in fact libxml2-2.2.17 contained 38 symbols LIBXML2_* (section "Version definitions") and the whole section is missing in libxml2-2.2.18. Is this some defect on my system, a screwup by the new libxml2 or intentional? At least, it requires recompiling everything which requires libxml2... Regards, Christoph -- Spare Space
