libxml2.16: needs doxygen-1.9 for -q flag2025-12-20: python37-3.7.17-2 (Interpreted, object-oriented language)
Python is often compared to Tcl, Perl, Scheme or Java.
This package installs unix python - not the OSX Framework version.
Builds a two-level namespace dynamic libpython (needed for koffice).
The interpreter is installed as "python%type_raw[python]", and all associated
commands are similarly named with the python-version in them. To get
the simple "python3" command, install the fink package "python3" (note:
the "python3" command there is not guaranteed to be python%type_raw[python]!).
