testing/packages/libxml2-2.12.2-x86_64-1.txz:  Upgraded.
  Hey folks, I'm in need of a bit of assistance here. I've had libxml2 on the
  back burner for quite some time now in spite of yet-another variation of
  the old "billion laughs" resource exhaustion attack that's been supposedly
  fixed. The issue I'm running into with newer versions of libxml2 is that
  the rewrite rules for mapping external entities to files on the system no
  longer work, and I'm not sure why that is. For a quick demonstration,
  upgrade to this libxml2 package and then try to build glib2. You'll see
  xsltproc called to generate documentation such as the man pages, but it isn't
  able to find the entity locally and fails due to --nonet.
  I'll be keeping an eye on LQ if anyone has any hints. Thanks!

+# HOW TO EDIT THIS FILE:
+# The "handy ruler" below makes it easier to edit a package description. Line
+# up the first '|' above the ':' following the base package name, and the '|' on
+# the right side marks the last column you can put a character in. You must make
+# exactly 11 lines for the formatting to be correct. It's also customary to
+# leave one space after the ':'.

+libxml2: libxml2 (XML parser library)
+libxml2:
+libxml2: Libxml2 is the XML C parser library and toolkit. XML itself is a
+libxml2: metalanguage to design markup languages  - i.e. a text language where
+libxml2: structures are added to the content using extra "markup" information
+libxml2: enclosed between angle brackets. HTML is the most well-known markup
+libxml2: language. Though the library is written in C, a variety of language
+libxml2: bindings make it available in other environments.
