[ANNOUNCEMENT] Updated: xerces-c 2.5.0-1

[Abe Backus]

I've updated the version of xerces-c to 2.5.0-1.  This also includes the
xerces-c-devel, xerces-c-doc, and libxerces-c25 packages.

This is an official update release.  The official release announcement text
follows:

The Xerces-C team is happy to announce that Xerces-C 2.5.0 is now
available. There are several major enhancements in this release:

- Fix duplicate attribute detection when namespaces are disabled
- Stricter use of static memory manager for static data only
- PSVI bug fixes and enhancements
- Re-pluggable Panic Handler
- Enhanced mutex creation to improve thread safety
- Intrinsic transcoding support for 390.
- Canonical Representation Support
- New sample SCMPrint
- New sample PSVIWriter
- New test XSerializerTest

More details about the changes in this release may be found at
http://xml.apache.org/xerces-c/releases.html, 


Also updated in this release (cygwin-specific) is the ability to use Windows
or Cygwin file system paths.

To update your installation, click on the "Install Cygwin now" link on the
http://cygwin.com/ web page.  This downloads setup.exe to your system.  Once
you've downloaded setup.exe, run it and select "Libs"
("Devel" for the xerces-c-devel package, "Doc" for the xerces-c-doc
package) and then click on the appropriate field until the above announced
version number appears if it is not displayed already.

Don't get too excited about this new release, yet.

It is temporarily pulled from the distribution until packaging problems
are rectified.

FYI,
