libxml2-python

xorg-server requires mesa, and mesa requires python and libxml2, more 
exactly libxml2-python.

This is supposed to be set up the python way using
   python setup.py build install
which already does not work manually:
   failed to find headers for libxml2: update includes_dir
Supposedly, one needs to specify the path to libxml2.

Alternatively, one can run setup.py during the compilation of libxml2. 
Trying this by hand results in
   copying build/lib.linux-x86_64-2.7/libxml2mod.so -> 
/usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages
   error: /usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/libxml2mod.so: Permission 
denied
Clearly, we do not want python modules to end up in /usr/local.

Do you see a solution?

Andreas
