"Starting with this release, it should be enough to add the --with-legacy configuration option to provide maximum ABI compatibility."
So why not I guess
* libxml2/PKGBUILD:
- remove the libraries 'ncurses' and 'ncurses-devel' from depends and
makedepends, resp., since they are indirect dependencies to libxml2.
- make autoreconf be verbose
- remove trailing spaces
libxml2-2.9.0-do-not-check-crc.patch: this comes from fedora, but they
no longer use it
doc installation is no longer configurable, so just remove the patch
and the options.
drop parts of msysize patches by building for cygwin
remove gl_cv_have_weak, as I don't think there is any gnulib in there
from what I see this is only used for encoding/decoding and the
README says "Mainly useful as an
alternative to iconv on Windows. Unnecessary on most other systems."
Since this is the only user of icu in base this also helps the installer size.
In some cases this will introduce cycles which could likely be cleaned
up by only depending on some unix tools instead of the whole autotools.
Rebuilding doesn't make much sense at this point since it just adds a subset
of base-devel which is still installed by default.
* libxml2: fix the build
See #1917
* libxml2-python: Build with Python 3
* itstool: Build with Python 3
* libxslt: fix the build
See #1917
* libxslt: Drop libxslt-python
* yelp-xsl: Don't depend on libxslt-python
Doesn't look like it is used
* yelp-tools: Don't depend on libxslt-python
Doesn't seem to be used
* rarian: Don't depend on libxslt-python
libxslt seems enough
* upgrade some broken packages
* correct some broken urls/checksums
* use secure urls where possible
* use stable url for ncurses
* some whitespace fixes
Remaining md5sums either didn't download or
didn't pass checksum tests.
