Public bug reported:
[Availability]
Available in Ubuntu since forever
[Rationale]
This is now a dependency of a package Mir produces; specifically
libmirwayland-bin (and, transitively, libmirwayland-dev).
[Security]
No CVEs found(!)
Library only; ships no suid binaries or daemons.
It's a wrapper around libxml2, so inherits any of those security bugs,
but we already support libxml2 in main.
[Quality assurance]
No serious bugs open in either Ubuntu or Debian.
[Dependencies]
Only libc, libstc++, the glibmm C++ wrapper and libxml2; all in main
[Standards compliance]
Relatively up to date. No serious lintian warnings.
[Maintenance]
Maintained by the GNOME team in Debian; it's a part of the GNOME platform. It's
missing the latest series of releases (3.0); I shall update this for 20.04, but
it shouldn't be necessary for Eoan.
[Background information]
We needed a C++ XML parser for some Wayland work in Mir; there doesn't appear
to be an existing C++ XML parser in main, and this is a GNOME-supported C++
wrapper around libxml2 found in main.
