{tools}[SYSTEM,GCCcore/15.2.0] gettext v0.26, libunistring v1.4.1, libxml2 v2.15.1, ncurses v6.6, XZ v5.8.2 by Thyre · Pull Request #25002 · easybuilders/easybuild-easyconfigs

Thyre · 2026-01-05T13:01:35Z

(created using eb --new-pr)

Removed XZ from libxml2, as 1.15.0 drops support for LZMA compression. This also resolves the cyclic dependency XZ -> libxml2 -> gettext -> XZ.
For ncurses, revert the handling for GCC 15, as the latest release can handle C23 just fine.

Requires:

…libunistring-1.4.1-GCCcore-15.2.0.eb, libxml2-2.15.1-GCCcore-15.2.0.eb, ncurses-6.6.eb, XZ-5.8.2-GCCcore-15.2.0.eb
