libxml2-dev header file locations ?



Hello. 

In trying to compile fontconfig, it looks for libxml2 and after
installing libxml2-dev, it still complains that it's not there. 

checking for libxml/parser.h... no
configure: error: cannot find either libxml2 or expat

Apparently, libxml2-dev installs it's headers into
/usr/include/libxml2/libxml/

Once I did this

cp -r /usr/include/libxml2/libxml /usr/include

The compile went fine. 

Is this a bug in fontconfig's configure script, or in the libxml2 deb
package?

thanks

  michael
