Hi In the libxml page we have currently this note:
"Some packages which utilize libxml2 (such as GNOME Doc Utils) need the Python module installed to function properly. " But lbxml2 is a required dependency for GNOME Doc Utils (ScrollKeeper --> libxslt --> libxml2) Based on that, I think that Python should be a Recommended libxml2 dependency. PD: As a side effect, that change will prevent the circular dependency lbxml2 --> lbxslt --> libxml2 in the new jhalfs code (under development) while allowing to build the Python module. PD2: The above jhalfs fix could be achieved also by other ways, like removing role="optional" from the second optional dependencies block. -- Manuel Canales Esparcia Usuario de LFS nÂș2886: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org LFS en castellano: http://www.escomposlinux.org/lfs-es http://www.lfs-es.com TLDP-ES: http://es.tldp.org -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/blfs-dev FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
