Description:   Opened: 2007-10-28 15:40 0000 
Example source code from the following page

http://libxmlplusplus.sourceforge.net/docs/manual/html/ar01s02.html

won't compile with libxmlpp-2.20.0 in Gentoo. Apparently the header
libxml++config.h is not installed during the emerge operation.

Emerging the previous version, libxmlpp-2.13.1, works ok.

Apparently the problem has been reported elsewhere too:

# qfile libxml++config.h
dev-cpp/libxmlpp (/usr/lib/libxml++-2.6/include/libxml++config.h)

# pkg-config --cflags libxml++-2.6
-I/usr/include/libxml++-2.6 .......

No wonder you're not getting that file. Now as to why it's installed there
instead of /usr/include/libxml++-2.6 is for you/upstream to find out :) (I'll
eventually get to look at this, but the more you dig on your own, the easier
it's going to be to fix this)

Thanks for the bug report

In case I wasn't clear, please file a bug upstream with the info here and add
gnome-mm@gentoo.org as a CC on it.

Thanks :)

Rémi: you are right, sorry for not checking more carefully.

Reported to GNOME bugzilla:

Unfortunately it seems like they do not allow CCing to unknown email addresses
:/

Thanks for reporting upstream. I added gnome@gentoo.org instead :)

Fixed in CVS ... our fault :) Please reopen if it still fails.
