Okay, since the patches fallback to the previous code if pkg-config step fails I think this is the best way to handle this, so pushed and applied https://git.gnome.org/browse/libxml2/commit/?id=3d75c2e82806955542a41ff62a5be25e04287d89 https://git.gnome.org/browse/libxml2/commit/?id=45f0abd4278776e1c12df38672b8d20a3cc471a8 Thanks !
