Hello,
I am interested in becoming a package maintainer for the Mini-XML library
(http://michaelrsweet.github.io/mxml/).
Mini-XML is a small XML parsing library that you can use to read XML and
XML-like data files in your application without requiring large non-standard
libraries.
The Mini-XML library is part of many Linux distributions like:
Debian - https://packages.debian.org/de/stretch/libmxml-dev
Fedora - https://admin.fedoraproject.org/pkgdb/package/rpms/mxml/
Suse - https://software.opensuse.org/package/mxml
Arch - https://www.archlinux.org/packages/community/x86_64/mxml/
Gentoo - https://packages.gentoo.org/packages/dev-libs/mini-xml
...
I have tried to make a first package and uploaded it here:
https://sk13.xyz:45443/cygwin/x86/libmxml-dev/
I would be thankful for any hints regarding issues / quality improvements
with this package.
Thanks!
Sincerely,
Stefan Köpsell

Do you plan on ITPing something which uses this? A library by itself is
of little use.

Several problems:
* The source package (NAME) should be name mxml;
* A shared library should be created (pass --enable-shared to cygconf);
* Static libraries are not generally desired;
* There should be 2-3 subpackages, mxml with any program/utilties,
libmxml1 with the runtime library, and libmxml-devel (not -dev) with the
headers, import library, etc.

Hello,

Hm, not at the moment. But several of our projects depend on the library - and it makes contributing more easy, if the library is available as Cygwin package.

There a now two packages: one containing the shared library and the other containing the development files

I think the remaining question was this:

Which is probably something you might have an answer to…
