By standard distribution do you mean that other people might use your library with other applications?
I mean our application uses libxml2 which uses libz, and needs to run on a standard Ubuntu (as it happens) distro. So, to work around this in the way you suggest, I'd need to compile a special libxml2 and ensure we either static linked to it, or it was in a different place (as you suggest), build it into an appropriate .deb package, and then I'd have to have some process for importing security fixes, and all the other inter-release changes into that tree, add this to our build system, unit tests etc. Alternatively, zlib could fix their issue, which is clearly the best route, but Daniel appears to be meeting some resistance which doesn't totally surprise me. Failing that, if there were a runtime tweak to disable each of the various handlers, that would be good enough. In fact it might even be better, as I know for certain that the one xml file this particular thing reads is never compressed. -- Alex Bligh _______________________________________________ xml mailing list, project page http://xmlsoft.org/ [email protected] https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/xml
