Bug#712544: RFS: xalan/1.11-1 [ITA]
(I don't intend to sponsor this. Sorry!)

Years in d/copyright are not up-to-date.
Please forward fix-ftbfs-ld-as-needed.diff upstream.
kfreebsd-support.diff might be worth forwarding, too.
It would be a good idea to regenerate the configure script at build
time.
Lintian emits:
I: xalan: hyphen-used-as-minus-sign usr/share/man/man1/xalan.1.gz:89
I: xalan: hyphen-used-as-minus-sign usr/share/man/man1/xalan.1.gz:94
(And if Lintian was smarter, it would emitted this tag many more
times...)
Also emits this:
X: libxalan111: binary-file-built-without-LFS-support usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/libxalan-c.so.111.0
(It might be worth fixing upstream, but I'm not sure if opening files
larger than 2GB is a realistic use-case for this library.)
And this:
W: libxalan111: package-name-doesnt-match-sonames libxalan-c111 libxalanMsg111
(You have to rename the shared library anyway, so there's no excuse for
not using a policy-compliant name.)
And this too:
I: libxalan111: extended-description-is-probably-too-short
I: libxalan111-doc: extended-description-is-probably-too-short
The -dev and -doc packages should normally be unversioned. (And one
should normally avoid renaming -dev too, although in this case there are
no reverse-(build-)deps, so it doesn't hurt.)
Typos in README:
comand -> command
defnitions -> definitions
