libxslt-1.1.37

FYI, python3 bindings built fine for me. Also wondering if the sed command is still needed? I don't see other distros doing this.

We need to consider a system where Python 2 is installed. The Python check from autoconf tries python and python2 first, then python3, despite Python 2 is already dead. So if we need Python 3 bindings we'll have to add something like PYTHON=/usr/bin/python3. Relying on "fine for me" often causes "Python 2 vs 3" trouble.

Also wondering if the sed command is still needed? I don't see other distros doing this.

Increase the recursion limit in libxslt, which allows man pages for samba and systemd to be generated

Have you tried building those man pages without the sed?

For systemd, it's now passing --maxdepth 9000 to xsltproc so this should not be a problem now.

Not sure about samba.

There was ​https://bugzilla.samba.org/show_bug.cgi?id=9515 and it's closed as "WONTFIX", but I can't reproduce it with libxslt w/o the sed now.

The discussion in other distros suggests this issue should be already fixed by docbook-xsl-nons-1.79.2-stack_fix-1.patch, so I'll go to remove the sed in 11.3 development cycle. For 11.2 libxslt is already freezed.

I checked samba man pages and they seem to work without the sed.

Updated at commit 323310fd447163635b22454defe10b919cc352a6 but leaving open until we decide if libxml2py2 is needed.

libxml2py2 is needed for GIMP
