Name            : libxml2
Version 7.3     : 2.4.19-5.legacy
Summary         : Library providing XML and HTML support.
Description :
This library lets you manipulate XML files. It includes support to
read, modify, and write XML and HTML files. It has DTD support,
including parsing and validation, even with complex DTDs. The output
can be a simple SAX stream or an in-memory DOM like representation.
In this case you can use the built-in XPath and XPointer
implementation to select subnodes or ranges. A flexible Input/Output
mechanism is available, with existing HTTP and FTP modules and
combined to an URI library.
