I have just orphaned the xalan-c package.

It has been officially unmaintained upstream for 2-3 years[1].

Now, it fails to build from source with GCC 15. This is surely fixable, but the correct fix isn’t immediately obvious to me.

If xalan-c is retired, it will impact two packages, xml-security-c and brewtarget. Both appear to be leaf packages in Rawhide, and their maintainers have been CC’d on this email in case someone wants to put in the effort to fix xalan-c and keep it around a bit longer.
