Hi
In the libxml page we have currently this note:
"Some packages which utilize libxml2 (such as GNOME
Doc Utils) need the Python
module installed to function properly. "
But lbxml2 is a required dependency for GNOME Doc Utils
(ScrollKeeper -->
libxslt --> libxml2)
Based on that, I think that Python should be a Recommended
libxml2 dependency.
PD: As a side effect, that change will prevent the circular
dependency lbxml2
--> lbxslt --> libxml2 in the new jhalfs code (under
development) while
allowing to build the Python module.
PD2: The above jhalfs fix could be achieved also by other
ways, like removing
role="optional" from the second optional
dependencies block.
