libxml2-dev_2.6.22-2 should be fine. I just checked with pkg-config on a system with that version. $ dpkg -l libxml2-dev|grep libxml2-dev ii libxml2-dev 2.6.22-2 Development files for the GNOME XML library > checking for libxml-2.0>=2.0 ...

The first is (as usual) from libxml2-dev, the other two from the libxml2 package. This is the important file (for pkg-config): $ dpkg -L libxml2-dev|grep pc /usr/lib/pkgconfig/libxml-2.0.pc > I set the environment variable PKG_CONFIG_PATH to /usr/lib > > But still the same error persists.

Can't tell if a reinstall would help. > Here is the configuration that I used to compile OOo_2.0.0rc3_src > ./configure --with-lang="en-GB ne" --with-dict=ENGB,NENP > --with-jdk-home="/usr/local/src/j2sdk1.4.2_02" > --disable-gnome-vfs --disable-gtk --disable-mozilla --with-system-libxml > > Is there any harm in diabling gnome-vfs, gtk and mozilla? There should be no problem with these options. If you can't get --with-system-libxml to work, you can try the patch from the bug report that I mailed earlier. HTH, Martin
