I didn't file it for the plain build issue. Nevertheless, if it broke so
many projects you probably should do a full-fledged rebuild and send
patches before uploading to unstable and putting this on all maintainers
(or by making them get a FTBFS bug by Lucas once a rebuild happens at
which time people won't remember the libxml2 update)
In any case, *this* bug is about the ABI change: removed
symbols/versions other stuff relies on.
Long story short: libxml2 2.12 has still a long road to go with much
work on your side until you can upload it to unstable.
Regards,
Rene
