Dear mentors,
I intend to deal with the RC bug #506805 with a QA upload for package xml2.
According to descriptions in Bug #754418 [1], xml2 upstream is dead but we
have a newer release tarball somewhere around the Internet. I picked the
tarball from Fedora project and have it packaged. Changes have been reviewed
by me and no problems were found (only fixes). Anyone interested can review
changes in the packaging repository [2].
Upstream import commit ID: 7cf024c51b18c48f85b764902aa6e2dd66eeac9d
P.S. I intend to do some stable uploads as well later.
