Wanted to let you know that we created a package for XSD 3.2.0 with
all its dependencies (except Xerces-C++ and Boost). The dependencies
are pre-configured and there is a top-level build.sh script that builds
everything in non-interactive mode. You can customize the build using
the standard variables e.g., CXX, CPPFLAGS, CXXFLAGS, LDFLAGS, etc.

There is a README file inside the package with more information and
the package itself is available here:

http://www.codesynthesis.com/download/xsd/3.2/xsd-3.2.0+dep.tar.bz2

We are planning to maintain this new package for the future releases.

I thought you may want to base your RPM spec file for XSD on it. Let
me know if you have any questions or need help.

Boris
