I've got libxml.so.0, libxml.so.1, libxml-so.1.8.7, libxmlparse.so.1,
libxmlparse.so.1.1, libxmltok.so.1, libxmltok.so.1.1.
I suspect that the problem is that while I have the Debian libxml1
package installed, I don't have the Debian libxml-dev package
installed. I'm going to install that now, and see if that fixes the
problem.
But while a lot of other gnome libraries are checked at ./configure
time, libxml is not. Perhaps that's a bug?
