hi Habs,

Niki already reported the issue related to building libofx against
libxml++ a few days ago

https://lists.slackbuilds.org/pipermail/slackbuilds-users/2016-July/016682.html

and I already fixed it in my branch on our git

https://slackbuilds.org/cgit/slackbuilds/commit/?id=ad93ab91eb1c52f95e6fe76333a171b980e3974f

it will go in the main repository at the next merge (soon): if you
wantto build it against libxml++, in the meantime, you can edit the
SlackBuild and do that little change.
