severity 560917 normal
thanks


Hi,

wx2.8 uses expat in slightly more/different ways to 2.6, but should
otherwise be unaffected by this for the same reasons as 2.6, described
in my reply to #560916.

I'm going to leave this one open as a reminder that both should have
--with-expat=sys and an explicit build-dep added (rather than relying
on other deps to bring this in) for the next upload, to ensure that
we _always_ use the system lib, rather than opportunistically doing
it for this one as we currently are.

Feel free to remove any tags identifying this one as needing attention
from the security teams though.  It is currently using the system expat.

Cheers,
Ron
