Fedora 38: FEDORA-2024-8a2c093df5 Moderate: Expat XML Parser Update

fedora
Calendar Grey February 24, 2024
Dist Fedora Esm H88
Upgrade expat to version 2.6.0 on Fedora 38, improving XML processing functionalities and resolving existing issues.
Rebase to version 2.6.0

Summary

This is expat, the C library for parsing XML, written by James Clark. Expat

is a stream oriented XML parser. This means that you register handlers with

the parser prior to starting the parse. These handlers are called when the

parser discovers the associated structures in the document being parsed. A

start tag is an example of the kind of structures for which you may

register handlers.
