Hi!
Seeing libxml++ on the package list reminded me that libxml++ is
deprecated upstream and there are three new libraries that replace it:
libxml++-3.0 (uses Glib::ustring from glibmm-2.4 ABI)
libxml++-4.0 (uses Glib::ustring from glibmm-2.68 ABI)
libxml++-5.0 (doesn't use glibmm)
See https://libxmlplusplus.github.io/libxmlplusplus/ for more details.

I'd like to deprecate and remove libxml++ from Fedora. All three above
are packaged in Fedora, so it should be trivial to switch dependent
packages to one of the above. I plan to work on that at some point in
the future. Help is, as always, welcome.

Cc'ing glibmm maintainers. Are there any plans to deprecate glibmm2.4?

Regards,
Dominik
