Hello, Sorry but we don't add configure checks without knowing what's causing the problem. So far it only looks like a broken libxml install.
We cannot check for all broken installs in the world. Otherwise one day somebody will remove printf from his libc and request a new configure check for printf() as well. And another check in case he modified printf() to return different values. And another check in case printf() was renamed to pruntf(). Endless. Please try to understand what caused this broken/partial libxml install (do you have logs of the install?). By the way, let's make this new hwloc feature official: hwloc can now detect broken libxml installs by failing to build :) Brice Le 06/03/2015 21:14, Balaji, Pavan a écrit : > Hi, > > This is a problem with hwloc, which I had reported in the past.
