Changelog

libxml2 (2.6.26.dfsg-2) unstable; urgency=low

  * The slithering release.

  * debian/python-libxml2.examples.in: Renamed to
    debian/python-libxml2.examples
  * debian/python-libxml2.install.in: Renamed to
    debian/python-libxml2.install, and replaced PYVERS by a wildcard.
  * debian/control:
    + Adapted dependencies to fit all changes.
    + Added fields required by new Python policy.
    + Added fields necessary for flawless transition.
    + Replaced dummy python-libxml2 package by a full real package which
      itself replaces python2.x-libxml2 packages.
  * debian/rules:
    + Changed rules to get the python versions we want to build for and
      adapted some rules to fit with the new setting.
    + Changed shell loops to make loops.
    + In case python binary modules are identical (and they are, but they
      may not be with future versions of the python headers), replace some
      of them with symbolic links.
    + Adapted rules to the fact we're installing in only one python package
      instead of several.
  * debian/pycompat: Set to 2, for new Python policy. Closes: #373456.
  * Switching to the new policy avoids necessity to conflict with very old
    versions of the python bindings packages. Closes: #365057.

    Closes: #375113.
  * debian/control: Made libxml2-doc suggest devhelper.
  * libxml-2.0.pc.in, libxml-2.0-uninstalled.pc.in: Split Libs in Libs and
    Libs.private.
  * xml2-config.in, xml2-config.1: Added a --static option to add to --libs
    so that we can split what is needed when building statically and what is
    needed when building dynamically. Closes: #374017.
  * libxml-2.0.pc.in, libxml-2.0-uninstalled.pc.in, xml2-config.in: Added
    BASE_THREADS_LIBS to the static link information so that -lpthread would
