Um, seems to me that libxml-libxslt-perl itself needs a rebuild (and
possibly tighter dependencies) against the "new" libxml2 before it
can migrate?

  (sid)# perl -we 'use XML::LibXSLT'
  Warning: program compiled against libxml 212 using older 209
  (sid)# objdump -p /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/perl5/5.38/auto/XML/LibXSLT/LibXSLT.so |grep libxml2
    NEEDED               libxml2.so.2

Apologies if I'm missing something :)
