For the editors, that is hard to test (we build the xml and docbook
packages to be able to edit the book). And as a python package, it
is hard to know what it does (output from the build and install is
meagre). Do you have an example of the error mesage, and which
command provokes it ?
I've just done a build and DESTDIR install, docs with both those
libs and docbook-xsl installed - no obvious references to xml or XML
in the output. When things have quietened down I can easily hide
those libe for testing, but disabling the docbook stuff now it has
been installed fills me with terror (something to try on a system
which is going nowhere). So I'd like to know what errors I should
look for in this situation, and also if it is libxml2 or libxslt
that causes the first error, please ?
In a just built LFS, asciidoc returns:

So I guess libxml2 is a required dependency. I'll fix it.
