FEDORA-2004-087
2004-02-25


Name : libxml2
Version : 2.6.6
Release : 3
Summary : Library providing XML and HTML support

Description :
This library allows to manipulate XML files. It includes support to
read, modify and write XML and HTML files. There is DTDs support
this includes parsing and validation even with complex DtDs, either
at parse time or later once the document has been modified. The
output can be a simple SAX stream or and in-memory DOM like
representations. In this case one 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.


Update Information:

Updated libxml2 packages are available to fix an overflow when
parsing the URI for remote resources.
