Hi,
I configure libxml2 without python or threads or anything except zlib,
since we use none of that. You have enabled python, which is probably not
fatal, but has caused problems some other time.
More importantly is that you are trying to specify everything to cmake, and
not handling zlib correctly. Instead of -DZLIB=whatever,
-DZLIB_LIBRARIES=whatever will probably work, but I find it less
problematic to put the search paths into CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH and let the
cmake package do the work, to help avoid mistakes. Libxml2 needs both parts
of zlib to be found for our cmake test to pass, so that the test code will
build later on.
