Re: [libxml++] patch to allow building without glibmm

[Chris Coleman <cqc Cs Nott AC UK>]

Hi,

I will cerainly make use of this. 

I've had issues getting libxml++'s dependancies to build for my 
projects, and have been seriously considering the use of xmlwrap instead 
due to the inconvenience of having glibmm as a dependancy.

Cheers
Chris
