(In reply to Daniel Engberg from comment #12)
> Upstream is very supportive, patches have been merged and issues have also been resolved that we've submitted so I'd like to propose that we keep CMake and backport upstream fixes and add symbol versioning back for now (upstream may remove it later on though, https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/libxml2/-/issues/360)

There has been absolutely no movement in the referred upstream issue,
particularly wrt symbol versioning that consumers need *now*. "GNU Autotools
will stay as canonical build system for libxml2 on UNIX platforms." So for at
least this version, no, we're not keeping CMake.
