Ok Stuart. In fact I've not installed xbase because I've put the
system
on a USB stick and I wanted a very minimal set.
?Can you explain (or point out me some resources) the reasons of that

In 4.2 the expat from xenocara is used. The library is in the xbase
set.
expat is needed by at least one of the ports you want to install.
In -current expat from base is used instead.

"This will impact a large number of users! This was an unfortunate
decision whose ramifications were not recognized earlier in the
process. For 4.3, libexpat will be part of base43.tgz, solving this
problem."
