[Feature request]Optional libxml2 support? #66

Closed jc101 closed 9 years ago

jc101 commented 9 years ago

Would it break anything if including libxml2 support was optional? I see that it was included but was recently removed. I'm trying to use entities in xml styling files but they don't work which I've read here is due to libxml2 support being required.

A vastly simplier solution would be just to run the style through xmllint --noent first to handle the entities. And then read the resulting XML with Mapnik - then Mapnik will not need support for libxml2.

Thanks, you're right - I didn't know xmllint could do that!
