Hi
I was trying to build mlpack from source according to instructions given on
the github page.
Here is what the compilation log says after I did
>>cmake ../
CMake Error at
/usr/share/cmake-2.8/Modules/FindPackageHandleStandardArgs.cmake:91
(MESSAGE):
  Could NOT find LibXml2 (missing: LIBXML2_LIBRARIES LIBXML2_INCLUDE_DIR)
  (Required is at least version "2.6.0")
Call Stack (most recent call first):
  /usr/share/cmake-2.8/Modules/FindPackageHandleStandardArgs.cmake:252
(_FPHSA_FAILURE_MESSAGE)
  /usr/share/cmake-2.8/Modules/FindLibXml2.cmake:50
(FIND_PACKAGE_HANDLE_STANDARD_ARGS)
  CMakeLists.txt:126 (find_package)

But I have libxml2 installed with version 2.7.8.
