The recently imposed "must be logged in" restriction is a response to increased bot traffic on the site. This affects search, commits, and vuxml pages.
Search engines are not blocked. Try using "site:www.freshports.org" and your search terms.
After the ports freeze to fix some stuff, the freeze is over. I have some work to do before FreshPorts can start processing commits again before it can start processing again. I've created an issue for that.

Description:
Libxml2 is the XML C parser and toolkit developed for the Gnome project (but usable outside of the Gnome platform). XML itself is a metalanguage to design markup languages, i.e. text language where semantic and structure are added to the content using extra "markup" information enclosed between angle brackets.

textproc/libxml2: update to 2.15.1

Changelog: https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/libxml2/-/blob/2.15/NEWS

Notably, all documentation generation requires a circular dependency
on textproc/libxslt. While the API documentation, in HTML, lives
on the upstream site [0], the man pages are now pre-rendered manually.

Also includes an upstream commit addressing unsafe pointer usage
in XPath, leading to security bugs in consumers like libxslt
(CVE-2025-10911). [1]

Mark the -python child port DEPRECATED without expiration date since
upstream has not provided a firm one yet, particularly the release
schedule for the next major version 2.16.
