Yeah, I saw that, but when I tried to compile it with libxml
1.8.something, I was missing minidom which sounded like something libxml
might provide, so I assumed that it was a libxml2 thing. I might be (and
probably am) wrong.In fact, looking for Minidom on Google gives me a
link to a CVS server at the same place as gtkmathview, so it looks like
I am. I apologise.
