Re: [Nel] Linux: pb with ./configure and libxml2

[Cedric Valignat]

Hello Vincent,

There is a problem with the libxml 2 macro for autoconf so the test
program fail (at least on Debian :-) to overide this test you have to
run the configure script with the '--disable-xmltest' option.

The libxml informations (cflags and libs options) will be set correctly.
