** Description changed:

  [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.
+ Relatively up to date. No serious lintian warnings except for an embedded 
jquery (oops!).
  
  [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.
