Re: [xml] libxml2 crash

Daniel,

I figured out what you mean. It appears that my libxml2 build was picking up the library I built, but the 
headers on the system. This caused my build to not link with the same zlib library it compiled with.

Thank you for your reply.

Daniel,

I am using libxml2 2.7.8, and am getting the crash when I use zlib 1.2.5.

I am not sure what you mean about changing things randomly. I built both zlib and libxml2.

  If you update zlib, you also must update libxml2 to 2.7.7 or later.
http://git.gnome.org/browse/libxml2/commit/?id=a7e79f28689c574e0bbef17f4cb3da00249181ff

 If you change things randomly, yes you can get crashs because of this.
